Fundraising for Cystic Fibrosis NZ

Canterbury

On 5 December 2026, we are taking on The Spectacle in Nelson — running our first 50km Ultra Marathon to raise funds for people living with cystic fibrosis (CF).

Close friends recently welcomed a beautiful baby into the world born with a genetic condition that affects the lungs and digestive system, making something as simple as breathing a daily challenge. Every kilometre we run is a small tribute to the strength and resilience of those who fight CF every single day.

The money raised will go toward vital research, treatment, and support services that help improve and extend the lives of people with CF and their families.

Whether you can give a little or a lot, your donation will make a real difference. Please dig deep, share this page with your friends and family.

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.
