I am raising money for myself to represent New Zealand at the Youth World Rock Climbing Championships in Italy this August.

Nelson / Tasman

I have been selected to represent New Zealand in the Rock Climbing Youth World Championships in Arco, Italy this August. This is a huge opportunity and a dream I never thought would happen. I am to fly to Italy to compete against climbers under 20 like me from around the world. But I need to raise a grand total of $7000 to pay for 3 weeks of flights, accommodation, food and registration. I need your help to help me get there.

Ruby Friend's involvement (page creator)

I'm involved in Rock Climbing because it is my passion. I am an athlete competing at this event (This seems so unreal). I am 15 years old and attend Nelson College for Girls. I have been climbing for 7 years. I am trying to raise money as best I can for this opportunity; by working part time when I can. I also need to study, and of course Rock Climb. I need to climb 2+ hours 4x a week. Plus running, yoga and weight training.

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.
