Kick for a Cause

Rotorua’s annual charity football event is returning for the third year to support the Salvation Army. Come along to Ngongotaha Football Club to cheer on a selection of local identities and prominent personalities as they go head-to-head in a couple of friendly football matches.

You'll also be able to enjoy:

• a sausage sizzle, plus hot food from Khim’s snack and juices, and ice cream from Stone Soup
• spot prizes for the best costume, best banner, and most enthusiastic spectators
• games and entertainment for the kids

Entry is by cash donation, or by donation of a non-perishable food item to help stock the Salvation Army’s shelves. 100% of proceeds will help the Salvation Army care for those who need it most. Learn more and donate via - https://kick-for-a-cause-rotorua.raisely.com/
