You’ve probably heard of Round the Bays - an annual 8.4km run from Auckland’s CBD to St. Heliers which leaves over 25,000 people puffing for a good cause. Getting around a good cause is something we take seriously here at Joylab - so far we’ve helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for various charities.

This year, we’re lacing up and hitting the pavement hard for our partner, Big Buddy NZ - a non-profit organization with a simple premise: that young boys grow into happier, healthy men if they have a positive male role model in their lives. You can read more about our partnership with Big Buddy NZ right here.

As we train for the big day, we’re hoping to get some support behind us to match more fatherless boys with good mentors. You can donate to our running team here - every dollar counts, so even a cheeky fiver would be really appreciated.

We’ll keep you posted with the results after the race, and until then - thank you very much for your support.
