Givealittle

Sense Rugby NZ has set up a Givealittle page to make your fundraising efforts as easy as possible.

How it works

Starting a fundraiser is easy and impactful. Just set up a Givealittle fundraising page and share it with your whānau, friends, and community. Whether it’s for your birthday, a fun run or a workplace challenge.

You can personalise your page with photos and a message about why Sense Rugby matters to you. Every donation, big or small, helps us keep running inclusive rugby programmes for tamariki and rangatahi

Why donate

Many children with disabilities and neurodivergence face barriers to participating in team sports. Your support helps remove those barriers by funding inclusive rugby programmes where every child is seen, supported, and celebrated.

Funds raised go directly towards making Sense Rugby sessions possible, covering costs like venue hire, equipment, and helping us keep Sense Rugby FREE for any tamariki or rangatahi who want to join. Your donation ensures more kids get the chance to build confidence, connection, and a love for movement.

Our impact

Since 2020, we have transformed from a promising startup to a national leader in disability-inclusive sport and gone from a pilot programme to a national organisation.

In 2024/25, we ran 65 programmes and collaborated on 15 community events, engaging 643 participants, in 13 locations in New Zealand.

We consistently receive wonderful feedback from parents and caregivers, with many sharing how much Sense Rugby has meant to their tamariki and rangatahi.
