Help us to keep showing up for families in need

$4,160 of $100,000 goal
Given by 51 generous donors in 7 weeks

Nurturing Families is dedicated to ensuring no family is left to struggle alone—we provide essential children’s items in times of crisis.

Auckland

This week, our charity was hit with three devastating funding losses—over $100,000 gone. That’s 1/5 of our entire annual budget before the year has even started. We’re now facing the very real risk of losing 2–3 salaries, which means fewer hands to meet the growing need in our community and less support for families who rely on us.

Nurturing Families partners with 170 agencies to provide essential baby and children’s items, practical support, and community programmes. We’ve always stretched every dollar and worked with what we had, but this is the toughest moment we’ve ever faced. This month is set to be our busiest yet, and yet—we’re unsure if we’ll even make it to Christmas.

If you believe in what we do, we need you now more than ever. Every donation, every share, every mention matters. We’ll do everything we can to keep showing up for families, but we can’t do it alone.

Please help us continue our mission.
