In March, Craigs Investment Partners will again be organising a company-wide fundraiser to support New Zealand’s regional rescue helicopters. This year, the company has generously agreed to support this challenge by matching upto $25,000 of funds raised for the various Helicopter Trusts. ​​​​​​​

Entrants of teams or individuals can run, walk, cycle or any other form of exercise, and complete a challenge of 50kms per day.

By completing this challenge over the 31 days of March, our staff would have completed a total of at least 1550kms. That’s almost the length of New Zealand!

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.
