Fundraising and walking 5km per day in June for Neuroendocrine Cancer NZ

Cambridge, Waikato

In June 2025 I was diagnosed with Neuroendocrine cancer. Its a rare and rather sneaky type of cancer that deserves more attention and research. After my surgery and during my recovery, Neuroendocrine Cancer New Zealand provided wonderful support and guidance while we navigated it all. I'd never even heard of this cancer type until that point. I decided back then that I would fundraise for this amazing cause when the time was right. June 2026 marks 1 year since my diagnosis & surgery and it feels right to mark this milestone. So for the month of June I'm going to walk 5km per day. I don't like to ask for money usually, but this feels important. Please, if you feel called, please support my goal - I'm going to gratefully use my healthy body and walk 5km every day with joy in my heart for still being here and hope that I can give something back. My workplace (Innerscape Limited) have agreed to meet every $1 I raise towards this amazing organisation. And I'm going to organise walks in Cambridge where people can join me - lunch breaks, early mornings and after work. Thank you from the bottom of my heart - every dollar goes directly to Neuroendocrine Cancer NZ to support other New Zealanders navigate the situation they find themselves in. Thank you.

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.
