Jump Rope For Heart for Schools

Get skipping New Zealand!

When registered your School will receive everything they need to implement this fun and exciting fundraiser including ropes and resources to get the children jumping. You can choose to skip any time of the year or why not join other New Zealand schools as they "Jump-in-June" or "Skip-in-September".  With your support, we can work towards ensuring this programme continues to benefit New Zealand children now and into the future.
