By raising funds for Paralympics New Zealand, you are assisting us with our work to support and celebrate the achievements of Para athletes at international and national competitions, including leading New Zealand Paralympic Teams to the Paralympic Games every two years. And you'll help us to get more Kiwis involved in Para sports where we work in local communities advocating for sport to become more accessible for disabled people and to support the creation of more systems and programmes to enable participation in Para sport.

More about us

Paralympics New Zealand is a charity and our overall vision is ‘Through Para sport, lives will be transformed’.

As a member of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC), we are part of a worldwide social change movement, which uses the power of sport to positively influence community perceptions of disabled people and to promote a more diverse and inclusive society.

To do this, we support and celebrate the achievements of Para athletes at international and national competitions all year round. Every two years, we lead New Zealand Paralympic Teams to the Paralympic Games. We also work in the local community to advocate for sport to become more accessible for disabled people and to support the creation of more systems and programmes to enable participation in Para sport.
