Wanganui Riding for the Disabled

Reach more riders and change more lives!

Whanganui, Manawatu-Wanganui

We keep our rider fees low to ensure our services are accessible. We are a not-for-profit organization and operate with support from our community. Our therapy programs run four days a week and we encourage people with disabilities and social challenges to live their best lives, increasing independence and improving health and well-being outcomes.

Funds raised help us provide quality feed, tack, vet bills, farriers, enrichment for horses, stables and general maintenance and the people to care for them. Horses are our main priority as they enable us to provide our services to the disabled community.

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.
