Track the Givealittle story back to our start-up beginnings in 2008
2012
We join the Telecom Foundation and unveil our brand new look
We are now a 100% free online fundraising service for all New Zealanders.
From living in snow caves to racing horses across Mongolia
We continue to be amazed and inspired by the incredible things people do for good causes.
It's all about health
Kiwis tackle health issues head on and raise funds for treatments, recovery and to fund cancer research and support.
2011
Time for big plans
After another big year, we review our objectives and set some big goals for 2012.
$7,000 raised in 14 days for Nepalese orphanage
We see the power of Kiwis using social networks in action again with the '7k in 14 days' cause.
Disaster strikes in Christchurch
People across the world respond and give over $350,000 to support quake-affected Cantabrians.
2010
A $1m celebration!
We end the year with a bang and hit the $1m donation mark.
Help for the families of the Pike River miners
For the first time we create our own cause page to raise over $80,000 for the Pike River Miners' Relief Fund.
2009
Kiwis give over $250,000 to victims of the Samoa tsunami
We are overwhelmed with the amount donated to organisations helping in Samoa and commission Otis Frizzel to create an artwork, which is later sent to Samoa.
Givealittle goes to the cats
Moggies from around the country battle it out to be NZ's Next Top Cat Model and raise plenty for SPCA & Lonely Miaow.
Bringing Julie home
We experience the changing face of charity when hundreds of people around the world chip in to bring injured Kiwi Julie home from Vietnam.
2008
We flick the switch
Givealittle goes live on 3 December 2008 - we were actually at the pub when it all happened!
A launch party, without a launch
We introduce Givealittle with a party, but being the teasers that we are we don't yet reveal the site.
A great idea becomes reality
Angel investors Movac back the Givealittle social enterprise and things get serious.
