Help us wahine get to Malaysia
Taihape, Manawatu-Wanganui
We are five ladies (Janey, Emma, Christina, Hazel, and Keeva) and our mighty coach Paul Eames coming from the Rangitikei river in Aotearoa New Zealand, paddling the big racing dream raft all the way to Malaysia to compete in the IRF World Rafting Championship in December 2025.
Back in Feburary we competed in the R6 Pasific Cup in Murchison Nz, 3 days of adrenaline filled racing. With years of rafting experience between us, but very little experience in the racing field. We were 100% determined and excited to give it the classic kiwi "oh well give it a shot" (With the help of our amazing coach PaulE) we ended up coming out on top, winning all 4 of our races! Now then we qualify to represent our country to compete on the international stage.
But we need your help!
We would be so greatful if you could donate to our team to help us fund our expenses to get to Malaysia. Which include, entry fee into the week long race, flights to get us and some of our supporting team over there, our rafting gear and more!
Thank you so much for the support and we will be thinking of you all while paddling our hearts out down the river!
