Your donation helps fund our Hillary Step Scholarship programme, so no young New Zealander misses out on a life-changing adventure.

When you give, you’re doing more than supporting a programme. You’re telling a Kiwi kid: “I believe in you.”

And that belief is powerful. It sparks transformation. It gives a young person the courage to rise after they fall, the strength to keep going when things get tough, and the confidence to lead and grow.

They leave Hillary Outdoors with muddy boots, confidence, resilience, and a sense of connection they might not have known they were missing.

Your generosity doesn’t just open the door to an outdoor experience. It delivers a message that can shape how a young person sees themselves – in school, in friendships, and in their future.
