New Zealand Rally Champion and Mount Maunganui local David Holder is throwing his weight behind a campaign to see a special friend of his take the trip of a life time.

When he's not tearing up back roads around New Zealand, David keeps busy part time as a support worker for Mykal Mayne, a 13-year-old who suffers from Spastic Dystonic Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy.

"Technically being his support worker is one of my day to day jobs, but it's honestly so much more than that. Some days you can't help but smile at the things he says, and others you feel the impact of the quality of life he's got ahead of him,” says David.

"It's the little things in life that we take for granted, normal everyday stuff that Mykal simply can't do on his own.”

Aside from his physical disability, Mykal has an active mind and one of his big passions in life is Lego.

When Mykal came up with an idea of creating a video to help fund David's rallying career, the 27 year-old was quick to turn it into raising funds to take Mykal on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to Legoland in Florida, and has created a ‘Givealittle' page to help raise the $15,000 required for the overseas adventure.

"My theory is if a bunch of people can afford to miss their daily coffee and put $5 towards this we will make Mykal's dream come true.”

Already some of David's long term supporters are behind the idea, with Stadium Finance the first to back the project.

"It's great to have the support of my major sponsor Stadium Finance. Tony and the team have always supported people to live their dreams, so it's great to see them get behind something quite different from their traditional motorsport support."
