That's a wrap!
After 8 fantastic years of Vine Run, it’s time to close the door on this fundraising initiative. We do so with heads held high, having raised almost $200,000 for the New Zealand Brain Research Institute, supporting its ground breaking research into neurological disorders such as Parkinsons, Alzheimer’s, Multiple Sclerosis etc.
Rising operational costs has meant the event is sadly no longer sustainable as a fundraiser. The Donaldson Family and NZBRI would like to thank everyone who participated in Vine Run since its inception, along with our many volunteers. We’re proud of creating an iconic event, bringing together such a diverse group of enthusiasts, who embraced the occasion with zest, spirit and a healthy dose of smiles. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
