Please join us in supporting the Graeme Dingle Foundation Waikato for Climb 4 Youth 2022!

Bridget, Josh, Shelley, Ash & Chloe will be representing the Graeme Dingle Foundation Waikato – by overcoming climbing the Hakarimata Kauri Loop Track 30 times (as a group) in 4 hours.

We love to hike and we love to have fun doing it! This won't be an easy feat, but knowing we are raising money for a great cause makes us so happy - oh and the cocktails to be had afterwards will certainly keep us motivated 😉

Campaign Concept:

The Graeme Dingle Foundation Waikato are running a fundraising event at the Hakarimata Kauri Loop Track in Ngāruawāhia. Climbers will be proving that what they have inside is greater than the obstacle they face. By setting and achieving return trips, and a fundraising goal, they will be role-modelling our mission of empowering young people to overcome life’s obstacle. Supporting Graeme Dingle Foundation Waikato to deliver action packed values based programmes to our tamariki and rangatahi.

Every $1 we fundraise and invest provide benefits of $7.80 back into our communities.

The Hakarimata Kauri Loop Track sits 260m above sea level. The Track is 3km long consisting of 1,500 steps! Climbers will have a 4-hour period to complete their set target of return trips.

Please join us in supporting the Graeme Dingle Foundation!

Posted by: Graeme Dingle Foundation Waikato

What a day!

A total of 70 climbers came together on Saturday to complete between 1 and 8 laps of the Hakarimata Upper Lookout (via Kauri Loop) Track within 4 hours. Through this, our second ever Climb 4 Youth event achieved:

👏 A total of 284 return trips (852kms)

👏 Over $23,000 in fundraising so far (over $179,400 of returns for our community!!)

👏 Proof that we can overcome life’s obstacles

A big tino pai rawa atu to all the 2022 climbers, volunteers, donors and business supporters. All of this would not be made possible without your continued support.

We are also hugely grateful for the number of generous event-specific sponsors: Kennards Hire Te Rapa, Studio 386 Screenprint, Countdown Supermarkets Bridge Street, Mobicomm Limited, PrintRun, H3 Group NZ, Bivouac Outdoor Hamilton, and Stuff Waikato.

We are still trying to reach our fundraising goal, so please donate and ensure we can continue empowering our youth through our programmes!
