Help our students from Whakatane attend Space Camp in Huntsville, Alabama

Whakatane, Bay Of Plenty

Kia ora, I am a high school teacher at Whakatane High School and I want to take students to Space Camp in Huntsville, Alabama. In 2018, I had the opportunity to attend Space Camp in Huntsville, Alabama and it was such an amazing experience. I made friends from all over the world and we still keep in touch. Since 2018, I have wanted to take students back as the experiences would be life-changing. There are 25 students who want to go on this trip and it will cost them around $8000 each to travel to Huntsville as well as spend 6 days and 5 nights at Space Camp. They will then visit Houston for a couple of days where they will visit the Johnson Space Centre (mission control for the moon landings) and the Houston Natural Science Museum. It is an opportunity of a lifetime for these students so please donate to help their Space Camp dreams come true!!

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.
