Support KidsCan, and I'll run the Auckland half marathon as Superman

Auckland

I believe every Kiwi kid deserves a good start in life. So to help KidsCan with their great work, I'm offering to run the Auckland half marathon in a full superman costume. Yes, even the cape. If you'd like to see me do that, then make a pledge towards my campaign. If I reach my fundraising target of $5,000 your pledge will be collected, and I'll become the caped crusader for the race. If I don't reach the target, your pledge will not be collected. What's is worth to you to see me do it?

Use of funds

If the target is met, I'll don the Superman costume and all funds will go to KidsCan, because everyone deserves a good start in life.

If the target is not met, your pledge will not be honoured and your credit card not charged - but thanks anyway!

We did it! $5,320 raised for KidsCan  21 October 2019

Hi all, I was supposed to post this video before the race, so sorry it's late! Made my target total of $5,000 on Friday night, and on Sunday morning I took the ferry to Devonport in my Superman costume than ran back to the city. It was a bit hot but a lot of fun with some great crowd support.

Of course all totally worth it to be able to achieve this sort of result for KidsCan, and I couldn't have done it without your support. Your money will be well used - they currently support kids in 780 schools across New Zealand, and have around 30 more schools on their waiting list for when they get enough funding. I've really been blown away by the support from people with so many generous donations. Thanks again!!!
