Fundraise

Help people with coeliac disease to lead better lives.

Through your support and fundraising, we can ensure that we continue to support and advocate for individuals with coeliac disease.

Coeliac New Zealand relies on the support of people like you, through donations and fundraising, to help us enhance the lives of those in the community who are restricted by gluten, whether through coeliac disease or other gluten related disorders.

We are currently the only charity in NZ supporting kiwis with Coeliac Disease. There are many ways that you can get involved and help to fundraise for CNZ. Coeliac Awareness Week each June is a great time to fundraise, but you can obviously do this at any time. Be inspired by some of our brilliant fundraising ideas, or come up with your own unique concept – no matter how small or large the contribution, every little bit helps!

FUNDRAISING IDEAS

Get sponsored:
Take part in a sporting event e.g. Round the Bays, a half marathon, a swim or cycle. Simply get a supporter to donate to your Givealittle page.

Gold coin donation event:
Hold a fun event at your work, school or club and collect a gold coin donation e.g. Casual Friday or Tie Day in the office, or run a local competition with prizes donated by local businesses.

SELL:

Bake and sell some gluten free goodies, hold a raffle with donated prizes, hold a quiz night and charge an entry fee, or sell Molly Woppy cookies!

  • Shoot us an email to let us know about your event and we'll help promote it on our Facebook! Email marketing@coeliac.org.nz

We've made it easy for you by creating a Sponsorship Letter Template which you can use to get started. Add your own personal experience and how this fundraiser can positively impact those with coeliac disease.
