“It takes a village to raise a child”
As placements in our programs are 100% funded by the revenue generated through local business sponsorship, donations and our own fundraising activities, our activities in 2019 and beyond need to consider how we can service our increased placement popularity as well as the divergence of the developmental needs of our youth.
Sponsorship
Each Cohort (school term) we seek sponsorship from local businesses to fund our children into our program. In return for sponsorship we promote your business through several means:
- The #BeFitKids proudly wear your business name on the back of their training T-shirts
- Tautoko Rangatahi Trust showcase your business logo on our bi-monthly newsletters and on our website
- You are invited to provide an advertising sign/poster which will be proudly displayed at 3B Fitness Club throughout your sponsorship period (up to A3 size)
- We actively praise your business through social media and word-of-mouth
Donations
Not all people who support our cause are eligible to sponsor our program. While sponsorship covers a big part of the training costs for our #BeFitKids program, we do meet with sponsorship short-falls from time to time. We are also faced with other unavoidable overheads while offering our services such as; accountancy fees, costs of T-shirts and printing, volunteer training fees, administration costs etc.
In addition, Tautoko Rangatahi Trust would like to extend our offerings to our youth by way of additional training equipment, professional services etc.
Any donation, large or small helps us to support the South Taranaki Youth.
Fundraising
Tautoko Rangatahi Trust are constantly looking for fundraising opportunities. Some of the regular activities we undertake are:
- BBQ Fundraisers
- Selling Nothing Naughty bars (ordered monthly)
- Selling promotional items
We also aim to host 1-2 major fundraising activities each year.
Please keep an eye on our newsletters and social media posts for further information about current and upcoming fundraising activities.
Do you have something that we could help with? An event that needs some friendly staff, a house load of furniture to shift, or something else that we could help with? Please contact us if we can help you.
