We are a small team of mainly volunteer board members, so unfortunately we cannot help you with organising or promoting your fundraiser. We have made this fundraising hub to provide as much support as possible for your event.

Whether you’re participating in a sponsored event like a walk, run or cycle, or you’re holding a fundraising event within your workplace or among friends, the best way to collect donations is to set up a CrowdRaiser through our GiveNow general fundraiser. It’s easy to set up, and GiveNow will send all the funds directly to us when it’s over. You can then link your family and friends to your CrowdRaiser to get them to donate. 

If you’ve set up a CrowdRaiser through GiveNow, then you don’t need to do anything! 

If you have collected money separately, the best way to send it to us is via our donate page

Yes! Donations over $2 are tax deductible. If you’re donating through our GiveNow page, they will send you a tax receipt.
