Antarctic Plank Challenge

Nationwide

Hi, I started doing planks in the gym here at Scott Base when I arrived in Antarctica in early October. At first it was just a bit of fun, but maybe I can raise some money for a good cause 🤞

There are about 100 people on the base, so if everyone gives $5 it’ll be worthwhile 😃

My target is 20 minutes.

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.

Awesome effort Dave - not sure what is more impressive, the length of the plank, or the fact you did it topless in such extreme conditions! Great cause
