Offers of money for Aimee Dear have flooded into the Hawke's Bay Today office following an article about her stolen wallet.
The Hastings teenager spent three days scrubbing tractors to earn money to buy family Christmas presents, but it quickly disappeared soon after entering the gates at the amusement park on Saturday.
Despite at least four offers coming in, including a card with an undisclosed sum of money, mother, Teresa Dear, said that although it is "really lovely, we don't feel very good accepting the money".
"At the end of the day a horrible thing happened, but we are not looking for people's money. It doesn't feel right."
She said they had already accepted $110 from family friends.
