Make "A Very Coastie Christmas" live in 2025 on Sunday December 7.

Stanmore Bay, Whangaparaoa

"A Very Coastie Christmas" has been a "thing" since 2018. Help keep it alive every year by sustaining both the cost of the events and the costs of running the event and local Community Hub. In 2024 nearly 1,000 people roved the upper halls of Coast Plaza, in 2025 the activities will spread throughout the Mall. It's a free event but costs between $4,000 and $6,000 a year. The first sponsor on board is Coast Plaza providing space and about a third of our funding. Make sure we pull it all off with your valued donation.

The Trust delivers a safe free facility for locals to meet, educate and play in. In addition it runs the local Christmas community event, "A Very Coastie Christmas". I have been involved since 2016 as a member, Trustee and Trust Chair.

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.
