Participating in Westpac Chopper Bike Ride 2026

Southland

From April 18 to April 24, eight of us will ride from Gisborne to Taranaki over 6 days to raise funds for the Westpac Chopper. Every pedal stroke brings us closer to helping provide life-saving helicopter rescues for Kiwis across New Zealand.

The Chopper has helped save tens of thousands of lives. Your donation will directly support the organisation, ensuring they can continue saving lives. Every dollar counts and brings us closer to our goal of $21K for this ride.

Help us make a difference—donate today and support our ride for this vital cause! Thank you for your support!

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.
