Help Me Raise Funds for youth Mental Health While I Walk the Te Araroa Trail

Waikato

In September, I’m taking on a massive personal challenge – walking the entire length of Aotearoa, from Cape Reinga to Bluff – to raise funds and awareness for I Am Hope, in support of Gumboot Friday, a charity close to my heart.

Like many whānau across New Zealand, mine has been impacted by mental health struggles. My sister found support through Gumboot Friday’s free counselling service when she needed it most – and it made a world of difference. This walk is for her, and for every young Kiwi still waiting for help.

To make this possible im seeking Your sponsorship to help cover the costs of this epic mission.

Every step I take is for our rangatahi. Let’s walk this road together.

These funds will go directly to funding the walk.

No donation is to small.

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.
