One month without alcohol for a good cause

Dry July is a fundraiser that challenges you to go alcohol-free in July to raise funds for people affected by cancer. Having a month off alcohol also has great health benefits, such as sleeping better, having more energy and of course, no hangovers! So you're not only helping others, you're helping yourself. It's a win-win!

How it works

1. Sign-up to the challenge

2. Go booze-free in July

3. Ask friends and family to sponsor you

4. Help people affected by cancer

What is Dry July?

Dry July challenges you to go alcohol-free in July while raising funds for cancer patients and their families.

Funds raised through Dry July go towards Look Good Feel Better classes that support cancer patients impacted by the visible and emotional effects of their diagnosis and treatment.

Look Good Feel Better helps people with cancer to look and feel more like their normal selves. The classes include tips, tricks and techniques to help participants recognize the person in the mirror.

Funds raised through the Dry July New Zealand campaign will enable funding for even more Look Good Feel Better classes across New Zealand.

Golden Tickets

If you have a special occasion in July, you can always buy a Golden Ticket. A Golden Ticket gives a Dry July participant a night off their challenge. For a minimum $25 donation, even a night off can still make a difference to the lives of people affected by cancer.

Important Note

Dry July is a fundraising campaign aimed at challenging social drinkers to change their habits for a month and make some healthy lifestyle changes. We would encourage people to drink responsibly and stick to the recommended daily guidelines for the rest of the year. We advise heavy drinkers or people dependent on alcohol to speak with their GP before signing up to Dry July.
