Dust off your walking shoes and join us on Saturday 25 March 2023 for our new fundraising challenge – The Big Mission Home. 

Every day, people sleeping rough in Auckland walk as far as 17 kilometres, rain or shine, to access the basics like food, a safe place to sleep, medical help and somewhere to wash. That’s not easy. 

The Big Mission Home is a 17 kilometre sponsored walk to raise vital funds to support people experiencing homelessness and poverty. When you sign up for The Big Mission Home, you’ll be joining a community of Aucklanders who believe our city should be one where everyone has easy access to the things they need – and one where everyone thrives. 

The finish line of this challenge is the Mission’s flagship HomeGround building in central Auckland, but where you start and the route you take is up to you! Fly solo or work in a team – however you choose to get there, you’ll be helping to provide practical support, a welcoming community and hope for Aucklanders in greatest need.

Places are limited so get in quick!

A huge thank you to the incredible team who ran or walked the Auckland Marathon for the Mission in 2022.  Together they raised $50,000 for Aucklanders in need.

If you’d like to be part of our Marathon team in 2023 or you’re planning to take on another running event to raise funds for the Mission, get in touch with us.

Birthdays, weddings and other celebrations are great ways to share the love by asking for donations instead of gifts.
