Everyone deserves love during Christmas. Help us get a message of love to every child and family member who has a loved one in prison.

Auckland

Christmas is a time for families to be together. There are over 10,000 prisoners in NZ who are not able to be with their loved ones.

It is difficult for those in prison to access cards to send to their families.

Please help us ensure that the children and loved ones of these men and women receive a a special message this Christmas.

Extra funds will go to supporting our Prisoner Family days .

Each person will receive 2 cards to send to their loved ones.

$5 will buy 10 cards
