Making one kid's dream come true will be helping protect and nurture others.

MotoCity principal Andrew Hardisty has put up a Suzuki LT-Z50 Quadsport - which he describes as the ideal kid's first quad bike-to be won to raise money for Homes of Hope.

Anyone can enter the draw as many times as they want by visiting MotoCity by the flyover on Hewletts Rd. Each entry is $5. All the money will go to Homes of Hope.

"We want to help kids who do not have the opportunities many of us do," says Andrew.

"Tauranga Homes of Hope is a great, local charity which provides children with safe, loving homes."

Homes of Hope funding and development manager Vanessa Harmens says the money will go o school-related costs for the children in the organisation's care, such as stationery, uniforms, shoes, trips and camps. She says statistically the abuse of children increases at Christmas.

"We are hugely grateful to MotoCity for this," she says.

The prize will be drawn at noon on January 22, 2016.
