Walking with Tato

My doggo and I are walking 100km for Rainbow Kiwis – can you help us?

Right now, many rainbow Kiwis still face discrimination and unsafe environments in schools, workplaces, and even healthcare—and it’s putting lives at risk. LGBTQIA+ Kiwis experience higher rates of mental illness, suicide, and barriers to accessing the support they deserve.

So this October, my doggo and I are putting our paws to the pavement—walking 100km together for Pride Unleashed—to raise money for life-changing Rainbow support services.

This cause means the world to me, and I’d be so grateful if you could chip in to help us reach our goal. Every dollar makes a difference and helps create a safer, kinder Aotearoa for our Rainbow whānau.

Thank you so much for your support! ❤️🐾🌈

Had to miss a few days as was out of town - but back to it today! 3 more kms down. 

Will need to pick up the pace if we're going to get another 77km in in the next 19 days!!
