Help send me to Japan

I’ve got a school trip in September 2027 — culture, learning, and a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Card donations via Stripe (NZD). We never see your card details on this site.

Progress

We’re tracking donations carefully. A live total will appear here once fundraising is underway — we won’t invent numbers.

Every gift helps

Thank you for helping send me.

Why this trip

Why this trip

I have the chance to join a school trip to Japan in September 2027. It’s more than sightseeing — language, culture, and learning with classmates.

We’re fundraising family-and-friends style so the cost doesn’t fall on one household alone. If you can chip in — or share the page — you’re part of helping send me.

Every gift helps send me. Thank you.

What your gift funds

What your gift funds

Your gift goes toward my trip costs such as:

  • Flights and travel
  • Accommodation
  • School / programme fees
  • Food and local transport
  • Essential travel insurance / contingency

We’ll keep this list honest and update it when numbers are locked. We’re not a registered charity — donations support this family trip fundraiser and aren’t tax-deductible.

Donate with crypto

Crypto — scan or copy (secondary)

Card via Stripe is the main way to help send me. Crypto is optional if that’s easier. These are public receive addresses only — never send from an exchange unless you have chosen the matching network.

Send only this asset on this network. Wrong network = funds may be lost. Donations are irreversible.

FAQ

FAQ

Is this a charity?

No. This is a family fundraiser for my school trip. Donations aren’t tax-deductible.

Where does the money go?

Toward my trip costs listed above. The family handles the trip payments and will keep the page updated.

Can I give without a card?

Yes — you can send Bitcoin, Solana, USDT or USDC in the Donate with crypto section. USDT and USDC must be on Solana only (not Ethereum or Tron). Bank transfer and Givealittle are still coming. Stripe card checkout is the main path.

Will I see your name?

We may share first names or “anonymous” on a thank-you wall later — say which you prefer in the Stripe memo/note if available, or message us.

Privacy

We keep this page age-appropriate, and I won’t have private contact details posted here. Adults handle money questions.
