A campaign that asks Kiwis across the country to clean out their cupboards, sell their unwanted goods and pledge some or all of the proceeds to Starship will kick off tomorrow.
The Starship Spring Clean involves people selling their unwanted goods, big or small, on Trade Me or by holding a good old fashioned Kiwi garage sale.
They can then donate the proceeds, or part of, to supports the national children's hospital.
Helping launch the campaign is 14-year-old rugby fan and player Lachlan Gibson-Owen, from Whangaparaoa.
In mid-August, Lachlan needed surgery at Starship after a rugby boot sprig tore a 10cm gash in his lower leg at school rugby practice.
