Please help us raise funds for Gumboot Friday

Wellington

Earlier this year one of our own passed away from cancer. Rysz Balejko was one of us, an outdoor enthusiast, a volunteer for countless years at Big Bang and a dear friend. He was a teacher at our local college and a counselor helping many young adults work their way through the sometimes difficult teenage years. A man to be applauded and taken from us way too soon.

In consultation with Rysz's wife and 3 children we are dedicating the Big Bang Adventure Race 2023 to Rysz and raising funds for GumBoot Friday - the Balejko's charity of choice.

Please donate if you can and help us to continue supporting the work that was so close to Rysz's heart
