Karma Keg with Camp Purple Live 2020

Each week Moon Under Water teams up with a local organization doing good work in the community - every cent of the Karma Koha you pay for a pint of delicious Eagle beer goes to a chosen charity. On 13th April, the charity is Camp Purple Live 2020

Crohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are chronic autoimmune diseases that affect the digestive system, collectively known as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). Both cause debilitating pain, hospitalisations, repeat surgeries and a severely reduced quality of life. New Zealand has the highest incidence rate of IBD in the world. Despite this IBD remains a closet disease, shrouded in silence and relatively unknown.

Dealing with IBD as a child is extremely challenging. It means missed school days, hospitalisations, and, often, social isolation. Camp Purple is run by Crohn’s & Colitis NZ and provides an opportunity where campers can interact with other kids facing similar challenges and are not made to feel different because of their disease.

Come out to support a charity who's focus is on connecting and improving the lives of young people living with inflammatory bowel disease. Please help us make the camp a reality for as many children and teens as possible by heading down to Moon Under Water 3-5pm Saturday April 13th.
