FFC ride for KidsCan to 2026 LTCC

Helping kiwi kids ride into a brighter future. Right now in NZ around 157,000 kids are living in material hardship. Meaning they're going to school hungry, cold, or unwell. It's tough to learn when you're just trying to get through the day. Kidscan is leveling the playing field by providing food, shoes, a rain jacket and health products, so kids can focus on learning and not just surviving.

Ten years ago the Fat Fathers Cycling crew (FFC) hit the road from Christchurch to Queenstown and raised $170,000, helping Kidscan support an additional 800 children across 4 new schools on their programme.

Now we're back for round two. In November 2026, we'll ride 1,000 KM (with over 14,000 M vertical elevation) in the last week of November and finish with the Taupo round the lake challenge. This time we are aiming even higher, $200,000 to help 1,000 kiwi kids. Every dollar you give fuels the ride and changes a child's life (all riders are self funding costs so ALL dollars raised go directly to kidscan). Thank you for backing FFC / Kidscan and leveling the playing field.
