SmartTrade supports Gumboot Friday appeal.
For those facing depression and mental health challenges, every day can feel like walking through mud. On November 1st, thousands of Kiwis put on gumboots to take a walk in their shoes.
Gumboot Friday is an annual fundraising event, hosted by the I Am Home foundation, that raises money to provide free counselling services for any young person in New Zealand aged 25 and under. Their platform provides a bridge to rangatahi in need by breaking down the barriers of cost and wait times. By supporting Gumboot Friday, you’re helping every young Kiwi get the mental health support they deserve.
Smart Loyalty have proudly been supporting this cause for the last three years with the help of our generous members. This year we raised a total of $1,386 towards I am Hope’s Gumboot Friday appeal.
We’d like to say a huge thank you to those who contributed this year. Whether it was through a points donation or supporting the appeal in other ways, every dollar helps.
