WE'RE BIG ON FUNDRAISING
At Canteen Aotearoa, we're all about coming together to support rangatahi impacted by cancer, and now you can be a part of that.
This fundraising community is your space to make a real difference.
Every dollar raised goes directly towards providing essential services like mental health services, one-on-one counseling, peer support programs, and access to resources that ensure rangatahi don't need to face cancer alone.
Want to get involved?

Making a difference.
Around 4,200 new rangatahi are impacted by cancer each year, whether it's their own diagnosis or cancer in their whānau. Last year, Canteen supported almost 700 of those rangatahi impacted by cancer in Aotearoa.
Our evidence-based support helps to reduce distress, and 96% of rangatahi would recommend us to their peers.
