What are the grabbies?

What's the prize?

The 250 inspirational kiwis who receive the most votes will earn $1 return airfares for themselves and a companion to travel within New Zealand. They can choose to travel to any of our 26 dometic destinations.

Nominations are now closed. Thank you for sending us your inspirational stories. Entries and votes will be validated and we will be contacting the lucky winners next week. Check back on the grabaseat site next week to see the list of winners.

Vote for super mum - Karlene Radovanovich

Vote for Karlene
My mum is not only my mum, but a best friend. She has always been their not only for myself, but for my two younger sisters. I have never met a woman with a bigger heart than my mum, she has all the qualities of a super hero, although she hasn't managed to learn how to fly yet. She works with special needs at the local high school, she cleans a house for a disabled family and works with elderly. She is a very busy woman who has little time to spend on herself. She has been working so hard to help me pay for my university fees for next year, which I am ever so grateful for her. I do not receive any help from my father at all, which is made up for with the greatest amount of support from my mum. But her support doesn't stop there. She is also the manager of my younger sisters netball team, which she has done for two years, she was also a pippins leader for three years and a loving mother for seventeen years. My mum is my guardian angel and I couldn't imagine a life without her, she is my mum, my best friend and my hero, and I love her from the bottom of my heart.Watch out Helen Clark, my mum would make a great prime minister.Vote for Karlene, a lady with a golden heart.
