The Great Incredible Pram Race - 2023

Charity Footprints is thrilled to introduce a new campaign that goes beyond fitness—it's about making a tangible impact in the lives of local mums and families with babies. Welcome to "The Great Incredible Pram Race - 2023," a virtual marathon dedicated to raising awareness of maternal mental health while supporting Mums4Mums, a charitable trust that plays a crucial role in ensuring better outcomes for families.

By participating in this campaign, you are actively supporting local mums and families with babies, contributing to better outcomes for these vulnerable members of our community. The funds raised will directly aid Mums4Mums in its mission to provide essential services, from hospital-grade breast pump rentals to capsule rentals, ensuring that every mum and baby receives the care they deserve.

Did you know that each intake costs $495 per family? Or that a hospital-grade breast pump rental for a needy mum for three months costs $265 each? Your contribution to this campaign helps cover these costs and more, making a tangible difference in the lives of those who need it most.

New Zealand faces alarming statistics, with the highest suicide rates among OECD countries, particularly for pregnant and post-birth mums—seven times higher than the UK. Maternal Mental Health is a pressing issue, and Mums4Mums is on the frontline, ensuring that mums and pēpi (babies) receive the support they need for the best possible outcomes.

The target is ambitious yet essential. The funds raised will support Mums4Mums and its three-chapter locations in Tauranga, Whakatane, and Rotorua. With your help, we can contribute to tackling the maternal mental health crisis in New Zealand.

Charity Footprints is proud to partner with Mums4Mums for this significant event. The platform offers flexibility and adaptability, allowing the fundraising event to be more accessible to mums and supporters, fitting seamlessly into their work and life schedules. Less expenditure on organizing in-person events means more resources in the bank to support mums and babies even better.

Are you ready to be part of a movement that goes beyond fitness, transcending into the realm of community support and better outcomes for local mums and families? Register now for The Great Incredible Pram Race - 2023. Together, let's make our community stronger, one step at a time.
