Help Quinn get to the Canoe Slalom Junior Worlds in Europe

$1,900 of $20,000 goal
Given by 7 generous donors in 8 weeks

Quinn, 16, is representing NZ at the Junior World Championships in Kraków—we need your help with travel, accommodation, and competing costs

Alexandra, Otago

Quinn, at just 16 years old, has achieved an incredible milestone—he has been selected to represent New Zealand in Canoe Slalom at the Junior World Championships in Kraków, Poland in July 2026

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but it is also a huge financial challenge—every aspect of the trip is self-funded, and as a minor, he needs an adult guardian to accompany him.

We are reaching out to our community to help us raise the funds needed for flights, accommodation, coaching and travel expenses.

Every contribution, big or small, will help Quinn make this dream a reality. Thank you so much for your support—let’s send Quinn to the world stage!

Aimee McCutcheon's involvement (page creator)

I am Quinn’s mum, this trip is 100% self funded and with the team only just being announced it does not give too much time to start fundraising before heading to Europe end of May 2026

Use of funds

Flights, accommodation, coaching costs, travel between locations & food etc for 7 weeks. Any funds left over it will be used to help Quinn get to Australia in January 2027 to defend his Oceanic championship title

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
