I am fundraising for KidsCan to help disadvantaged kids in Aotearoa New Zealand. Child poverty is all too widespread a tragedy here.
Nationwide
I am not fit enough to attempt a marathon, or some other grand achievement like that. What I do have is long hair that many friends and colleagues have conflicting views with. Some work colleagues were conspiring to shave my head so I said I'll let you if you raise a couple of hundred dollars for charity.
There are many worthy causes out there, however in the end I chose KidsCan to fundraise for. My team works specifically with schools, and many of the ones we work with have students who benefit from KidsCan. Child poverty can have devastating lifelong impacts and I hope the funds raised by this can make some difference to disadvantaged kids in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Additionally, I am hoping to donate my hair to a kids cancer charity once it is removed.
Thank you all! 25 May 2021
Thank you all for your generous support!
The target of $250 was smashed and we raised $1,600 in the end! Special thanks to Maynard Marks for matching the $800 originally raised, and the directors and staff for their kind contributions.
This money will make a real difference to the lives of kids around Aotearoa New Zealand!
