We're taking on the Move Your Butt challenge

This February, Team Dawson is taking on the Move Your Butt Challenge for Bowel Cancer New Zealand — and we’d love your support. 💙🧡

We’re moving for a cause that matters deeply. Every month, 100 Kiwis lose their lives to bowel cancer, and every dollar raised helps fund vital services for patients and survivors — things like counselling, physiotherapy, and financial assistance for families navigating one of the toughest journeys of their lives.

By donating, you’re helping provide life-changing support and backing important research that brings us closer to stopping bowel cancer from taking the people we love.

A little goes a long way — and every contribution truly makes a difference.
It only takes a minute to give, and your generosity could mean comfort, hope, and practical help for someone who really needs it.


Who is Team Dawson? 🧡

We’re a group of family and friends walking in memory of Dawson Tanielu, who passed away due to other health complications. Dawson was all about connection and aroha — so in honour of him, we’ve committed to keeping active together and taking on challenges like Move Your Butt.

This year, our team goal is to walk 200 km throughout February — and we’d love for you to be part of it.

You can support us by:
👉 Joining Team Dawson and walking alongside us, or
👉 Donating to our fundraising page to cheer us on!

Fa’amolemole, help us make a real impact — for all the families affected by bowel cancer.

Thank you so much for your support. Together, we can make sure no one has to face bowel cancer alone. 🧡💙
