Walking 3000km to raise money for Forest & Bird

Help Sole to Soul reach our goal of raising $100,000 for mental health and environmentalism!

Starting this October, Emily and I (Hunter) will begin the Te Araroa to raise funds and awareness for mental health and environmentalism.

Through the process of navigating our own forms of grief and loss, it’s been in connecting back with nature where we’ve found some of the most healing; but the environment needs healing too. We believe when we care for one, we simultaneously care for the other. Which is why we are partnering with 3 mental health, and 3 environmental organizations (one of each in New Zealand, Canada, and Australia) to make a greater impact across the places we’ve called home, and to give back to the communities that have brought - and will bring further - healing into our own lives.

Our goal is to raise $100,000 collectively between the 6 organizations ($16,667 per organization) - but we’ve left it up to you to decide who you’d like your money to go to! There’s no limit on who you donate to, how much, or how frequently you donate!

We will be sharing regular updates of our journey and fundraising progress on our socials and website.

If you connect with this journey, but are not in a position to donate, you can provide support by following our journey on our socials and sharing with your own community!

All organization donation links can be found through our website: https://www.goldenhourcommunity.com/soletosoulproject
