Fundraise for Us

Because every dollar makes a difference

Fundraise for
Waikato Women’s Refuge

Turn your passion into purpose for wahine and tamariki across Waikato

Every week, more than 75 families reach out to Waikato Women’s Refuge seeking safety, support—and often, food. By starting your own fundraising event, you can be the reason a woman and her tamariki get the help they need. Whether you’re flying solo, working with your team, or rallying your school or community group, your event can create real change.

Plan Your Own Fundraising Event

There’s no one way to fundraise—just choose what works for you!

Here are some ideas to
get you started:

  • Donate a % of sales: Got a business? Give back by donating a portion of your revenue for a day, week, or month.
  • Take on a challenge: Run a marathon, walk 100km, or brave a midwinter swim.
  • Host an event: Try a quiz night, concert, raffle, clothes swap or shared meal.
