At the heart of Variety's fundraising efforts is the unique Variety Bash - a quirky car rally which travels hundreds of kilometres during one week in March each year fundraising for Kiwi kids, distributing grants, entertaining children and telling the Variety story. It's a mad-cap adventure full of eccentric vehicles, larger-than-life characters and heart-felt philanthropy.
A call for grant applications is made to the each area on the Bash route prior to the Variety Bash and Variety Mini Bash and the approved grants are presented to the recipients by Variety Bash participants as they travel around through each region.
