In neighbourhoods across New Zealand, kids are looking forward to a Christmas that may not happen.

Forced to choose between food or bills, hard-working parents like Melody worry whether they’ll be able to provide even the simplest Christmas meal for their children.

“I’ll only eat dinner 2-3 times a week so that the children have enough food. This is very stressful… a lot of crying and minimal sleep.” 

Food insecurity is the everyday reality for 98.8% of the families Variety helps.

Please donate today to provide grocery support for families like Melody’s this Christmas.

Building capacity is at the heart of community development and community empowerment. When communities are well organised, inclusive, influential and cohesive they create a positive environment for people to enjoy a good quality of life.

As part of MECOSS' work to increase the capacity of individuals and groups working at a community level in Manukau East, we are keen to open up channels for them to access development opportunities.

If you're interested in providing training-workshops or capacity-building courses to enrich voluntary or not-for-profit community groups and social enterprise organisations, or you'd like to suggest a course you'd like to see MECOSS consider running, please email lindsay.upton@mecoss.org.nz
