Support Us
Your support today will increase the health, wellbeing and connection of people in recovery from addiction and mental distress
The Speed Freaks are registered charity. With your help, people on recovery journeys can participate, be connected to the community. This directly promotes social inclusion, builds relationships, and reduces stigma and discrimination.
There are a number of ways you can get involved so that together we can support people who need us.
Or you can give directly into our bank account using your name as the reference:

Please email us if you donate in this way so we can ensure you are thanked and sent a receipt.
Ways to give
Regular Gifts
Regular gifts allow us to support people now and plan for the future. If you become a regular donor, you will be part of a very special group of people committed to helping people experience better maintained recovery, successful integration and acceptance.
Contact us to find out how to become a regular donor today. You can also set up an automatic payment from your bank account if you wish; please email us to let us know you have done this so we can acknowledge your support and later provide your end-of-year donation receipt.
Corporate Support
We have a Corporate Support Programme where businesses who partner with us have the opportunity to access special benefits and recognition.
Our tiered programme has set levels of giving, with each tier offering businesses promotion, opportunities for staff to participate and tailored communications and acknowledgements. If you would like to partner with us, please get in touch so we can talk through our programme with you.
Leaving a Gift in your Will
By leaving a gift in your Will, you can help generations of people to come. By making a bequest, you will be gifting in a way that is meaningful for you and will make a long-lasting difference in the lives of many. If you would like to leave a legacy to the Speed Freaks, talk to us today.

Donations of good condition used running shoes and gear
We accept donations of good quality used road and trail running shoes and other running gear, which we pass on to whaiora (people participating in our programmes) to enable them to begin running and walking outdoors, and to participate in running events. In addition to shoes, donations of seam-sealed waterproof jackets, running packs and vests, and other running clothing and equipment suitable to meet compulsory gear requirements for trail running events is greatly appreciated. Gear donations can be dropped in or posted to Further Faster, 57a Buchan Street, Christchurch (Attention Speed Freaks), or to any Shoe Science store in Auckland. Please contact us if you would like to check if we need what you have to donate.
