Onesie Appeal 2024

The most Onesie-ful time of the year happened between 9 and 15 September - our Onesie Appeal Week! Read more about the support from our incredible communities and see just a snapshot of the One-derful people who so generously donated their time to help us collect and fundraise in their schools, ECEs and workplaces.

More than 450 street collection volunteers and over 520 hours on the streets of Wellington and Wairarapa, over 170 fundraisers, 3 One-derous staff stars (Dan, Abby and Deepak) and around $234,000 raised - that's a wrap on Onesie Appeal 2024! 

Tēnā koutou and thank you for supporting us to be here for you, when you need us most – 24/7, for free. 

Every year we’re blown away by your generosity and support, Greater Wellington and Wairarapa. Thanks for being on our team.

Here's a snapshot of the incredible support we received from our community this year.
