Make Hope the Headline
We don’t need to go too far to hear about the cost of living crisis and the fact is, right now, 1 in 6 children go without essentials like food and clothing. While we can’t control this cost, we can make a difference. The Giving Store works to help kiwis give to kiwis.
When you donate one of our Winter Essential Packs, 100% of your donation will go to families in need this winter. Let's not let the cost of living get in the way of giving. Together, we can make hope the headline

Do you volunteer or know someone who does?
It's NZ Volunteer Week (16-22 June) and we know there are real good sorts in your community.
Often these kind acts and regular volunteering efforts go unnoticed but let's put a stop to that.
Let us know below who is making a difference in your neighbourhood so we can all appreciate them for the great work that they do!
