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.

It's back! Our Combined Churches Community Nativity Play is on again in Karori Park on Christmas Eve at 6pm 👼

This is a free family gathering where we encourage the children to come dressed as a character in the Christmas story and share in the play. 🐑 We always aim to hold the event outside in front of the Karori Park Café but can move to St Ninians church if the weather is not good.

Bring your whanau, fish and chips, mats, or picnic chairs to sit on and enjoy the spirit of Community celebration in the park. Please wear your masks, scan the QR code and keep the distancing. See you all there!
