More people in Aotearoa are facing hardship than ever before. The Salvation Army struggles to meet the rising demand for food and support due to declining donations and reduced government support. As needs increase, donations have fallen.

This year’s Christmas Appeal, Give A Little Joy This Christmas, is critical, with over one in five Kiwi children living in food-insecure households—rising to one in three for Māori and Pacific children: donations fund food, budgeting advice, counselling, gifts, and more.

Help bring joy this Christmas by donating at www.salvationarmy.org.nz... or calling 0800 53 00 00.
