Make May Matter

Brain Tumour Awareness Month

A brain tumour diagnosis brings fear and uncertainty. Your life has changed from that moment and there's no going back. No Going Back invites people to show their support and fundraise by embarking on a challenge ,creating a team or organisation fundraiser or by sponsoring others who are fundraising.

May is recognised around the world as Brain Tumour Awareness Month. Throughout the month of May we are encouraging our community to fundraise or to donate through our fundraising platform NoGoingBack.nz and help us raise awareness about the needs of brain tumour sufferers.

Your participation in fun, awareness-raising activities raise much needed funds for brain tumour sufferers in New Zealand.

Make May Matter and join us in raising awareness  for Brain Tumour Support New Zealand by creating your fundraiser or donating.

Make May Matter- Your Way

Wear a Hat Day

Organise a Wear A Hat Day event at work, school or uni. Get together with family and friends and wear your silliest hat, or even a Brainy Beanie! It’s a great way to start the conversation and raise awareness and funds for Brain Tumour Support NZ. Choose any day in May!

Movie Night

Got a movie you want to see? Why not organise to see it with friends, family, work, sports club, or school community and raise money at the same time? Many movie theatres offer special fundraiser rates and session times.

HIGH Tea

Book a high tea restaurant in your area and invite friends, family, or people from work or school to come along. Many restaurants offer discounted rates for charity fundraisers. You can also organise raffles or silent auctions to raise extra money.
