Some people have to walk hours to get their water
We have currently called ourselves "Someone Stole our Car" but would happily consider changing this name if we could secure a sponsorship. We would welcome the opportunity to have a corporate sponsor. In return for sponsorship we would happily wear the corporate logo during our training sessions, we would even consider renaming our team after the company or even dressing up in costumes when participating in smaller events or to cross the finish line at the Oxfam event! Also it would be possible for our support crew to wear the logo through out the event or even have a sign attached to their vehicle to support our Trailwalker Team. If there is a possibility of sponsorship we would welcome it openly! Alternatively if there is any way you could make a donation by way of money(see link above) or products that could help with our fundraising we would be most grateful and would love to hear from you.
We are currently training 4 to 5 times a week and over the coming months we are hoping to complete a number of training events to help us prepare.
Do something to help those less fortunate and sponsor us TODAY!

About Oxfam
Oxfam aims to motivate and support members of the New Zealand public to take action against poverty and injustice. We believe everyone can play a part in creating a world free from poverty. Trailwalker is your chance to make a difference.
In a world rich in resources, poverty is an injustice which needs to be addressed. We work with poor communities and local organisations to help people address the root causes of poverty. But we recognise that to achieve lasting change, we also need to challenge and change unjust policies and practices that reinforce poverty. That is why we work not only at the grassroots level but also with organisations, institutions and governments at the national and international level.
We believe every child, woman and man has the right to a life of dignity and opportunity. Oxfam’s belief in fundamental human rights underpins our work around the globe and our campaigning and advocacy work. We are fighting for a world where every person has…
The right to a sustainable livelihood
The right to basic services such as health, education, safe water
The right to life and security
The right to be heard
The right to an identity
Water on tap- we take it for granted
