Given by 343 generous donors in around 3 months

100 Dads raising 100k for school kids lunches UPDATE now raising $150k

Christchurch, Canterbury

On the back of an incredibly special Quiz for a Cause with BetterMan, we’ve now surpassed our original $100,000 goal — and that’s entirely down to this group and the wider community showing up in a big way.

We're absolutely blown away. What started as a simple idea between lads has turned into something so much bigger. People getting behind it, backing it, and making it real.

We set out to raise $100,000.

Together, we’ve already gone beyond that.

So we’ve set ourselves a new goal: $150,000.

Another $50,000 might sound like a stretch, but it means an extra 5,880 lunches for kids in our community. That’s thousands more times a child turns up to school without worrying about food, able to just be a kid, ready to focus and learn.

We’ve already proven what’s possible when people come together like this.

And there’s still more we can do.

Every $8.50 feeds a child for a full day.

So let’s keep it going and see how many more children we can help, together.

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.
