Fundraising for Alzheimers New Zealand

Auckland

As a family group we're cycling 3000 km on the Tour Aotearoa from Cape Reinga to Bluff and are fundraising for Alzheimers New Zealand as we go. Why Alzheimers NZ? We know that families impacted by dementia need all the help they can get and witnessed the fantastic support from Alzheimers NZ ourselves when our dad was ill.

We started the ride Saturday February 28 with the first leg down 90 Mile Beach and hope to reach Sterling Point in Bluff in around 19 days. We'll be posting updates as we go and you can also track our progress here: https://ta26.maprogress.com/?bib=CANJO

Please make a donation if you can and wish us luck!

Jude, Owen, Chrissy, Neil & Alan Smith

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.
