Starship Foundation

Join Team Starship at the Barfoot & Thompson Auckland Marathon!

Every stride you take and every dollar you raise will help improve the lives of New Zealand’s critically ill and injured children.

You’ll help fund projects which transform paediatric healthcare, providing world-class treatment to any child who needs it. You’ll help keep the Starship National Air Ambulance flying 24/7, picking up children from all around Aotearoa New Zealand and bringing them to Starship, our national children’s hospital with the only Paediatric Intensive Care Unit. You’ll help fund cutting-edge equipment and breakthrough research to attract and retain the very best medical staff.

Starship receives more than 145,000 child visits each year from all over Aotearoa, so your impact will span the length of the country!

Gut Cancer Foundation

Each year, gut cancers kill more New Zealanders than prostate and breast cancer combined. Join our team for the Barfoot & Thompson Auckland Marathon and raise vital funds for innovative research and clinical trials to improve the survival rates and quality of life for gut cancer patients.

Regular exercise has been proven to reduce your risk of developing a gut cancer so your marathon effort will not only support the 17 Kiwis a day who are diagnosed with a gut cancer but also raise awareness and promote healthy living.

Sign up today to help kick cancer in the guts! Any questions, contact abi@gutcancer.org.nz or visit our website www.gutcancer.org.nz

IAMHOPE

I am Hope

Throughout the year our I Am Hope ambassadors visit hundreds of schools with our “Little People, Big Feelings” program. Reading our new TR & Mac book “Little People, Big Feelings” the Ambassadors talk to young primary age kids about how to ask for help and normalise counselling as being  “just a conversation” as well as passing on other coping tools for them to take home and use in times of stress.

40% of kids will have a major crisis often associated with some type of suicidal thinking before they leave school. 80% of those kids never ask for help because they are worried about what others will think, say, or do. 

With our program we aim to reduce this number and help kids to feel comfortable seeking counselling or talking to their mates without fear of repercussions.

The I Am Hope tours are an unfunded service delivered at no cost to schools and communities and all costs are met by our charity. 

We need your help to keep up with the growing demand. Together we can build a better informed and more resilient generation of young people and arm them with tools to pass on to future generations.

By choosing to become part of the I Am Hope team at the 2023 Auckland Marathon, you can run while knowing every step you take is helping to get young people in New Zealand to a better place. 

Any questions please feel free to contact Michaiah at michaiah@iamhope.org.nz
