On Foot for the Front Line

$5,750 of $7,000 goal
Given by 83 generous donors in around 7 months

I’m walking 190km from Otaki to Dannevirke (and surrounding ambulance stations) fundraising for Te Kiwi Maia.

Manawatu-Wanganui, Manawatu District

I’ll be walking 190km from Otaki Ambulance Station carrying a response kit in uniform stopping at all Ambulance stations across the Central District (Levin, Foxton, Palmerston North, Feilding, Pahiatua) finishing my walk in Dannevirke at the Ambulance Station. I’m doing this to raise funds for Te Kiwi Maia, an organisation that provides support to First Responders and Defence Force personnel struggling with burnout, fatigue and physical injury. I’ve had the opportunity to be a part of a week long wellbeing retreat that allowed me to recover from burnout sustained during my career as a Paramedic. Now it’s time for me to give back. Help me to help those helping the helpers!

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.
