Halberg Foundation
Bringing about moments of joy to young people with physical disabilities through sport and recreation.
Auckland
The Halberg Foundation is a charitable organisation founded by Olympic legend Sir Murray Halberg. We work to ensure all young people with physical disabilities have equal opportunities and access to be active, included, and achieve their potential through sport and recreation.
We do this by providing grants for adaptive equipment, delivering inclusive events like the Halberg Games, and working alongside schools, sport providers and communities to break down barriers to participation.
Every donation helps us create more moments of joy, confidence, and connection — and makes play possible for young Kiwis living with physical disabilities.
