St Tom's Rātapu

$1,000 of $2,000 goal

Participating in Joyride '26

Wellington

We are a crew of primary school-aged tāmariki from Newtown (Wellington) learning to follow Jesus with our minds, hearts and bodies.

We love to ride bikes, run around, make art, play sport, dance, tell jokes, and read good stories.

We think ALL KIDS should experience fun, joy, and community and are stoked to partner to Joyya to help make that happen for kids living in extreme poverty in Kolkata.

On 26 July, we'll be holding a run-a-thon at Newtown School, and would love it if you would sponsor us!

If we raise $5,000, Tamsin (one of our Rātapu leaders) will shave her head!

Goal change to $2,000 19 July 2026

We want to raise as much moolah as we can for Joyya. But we also want our kids to reach the goal we set!

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.
