Wow- thanks for joining in! In 10 days we raised over $17,500 for the Give10 charities combined and $1,310 for St John.
We sincerely appreciate your generosity and thank you for helping us to celebrate 10 years of Givealittle.
Today is the day- Givealittle is officially 10 years old!
Thank you to everyone who has donated to this page and to Give10 during the past week- we sincerely thank you for your generosity.
The generous kiwi spirit has powered Givealittle for the last 10 years, and it is so wonderful to see some of this generosity channeled toward 10 worthy organisations in honour of our birthday.
We have $2500 left to go to hit our matching target and 10 hours left to raise it!
Please help us spread the word to give these organisations the boost they need around the holiday season.
Happy Birthday Givealittle! :)
