KIWI K.A.R.E is providing critical Aid and Refugee Evacuation services to the people of Ukraine.
The people of Ukraine are under siege. Help us do what Kiwi's do best: use our practical skills and can-do attitude to make a positive difference.
Fourteen million Ukrainians have been displaced, with half this number believed to be internally displaced within Ukraine. Many are unable to get away from the suffering and trauma of constant attacks.
KIWI K.A.R.E (Kiwi Aid & Refugee Evacuation) needs to raise money to fund vehicles, and purchase supplies and equipment to run a 24-month operation.
We are delivering food, sanitary products for women, nappies, toys for children, medicine and medical equipment, trauma kits and defibrillators, pet supplies (for the thousands of displaced animals) and much more.
We are also providing evacuation services for Internally Displaced Persons (IDP’s) from troubled areas.
KIWI K.A.R.E is a registered New Zealand Charitable Organisation and is led by Tenby Powell. With over three decades of military service in the NZ Army, a successful business career and service on government boards, Tenby is funding his own way while in situ in Ukraine and now seeks help with sustainable funding for Kiwi K.A.R.E.
“Many have lost everything. The supplies we deliver are essential for those remaining in Ukraine and for those we assist with evacuation. Without a new van the entire operation stops. We travel thousands of kilometres each week and we need to maintain this high operational tempo.”
Thank you for your generous support.

Kiwi K.A.R.E (Kiwi Aid & Refugee Evacuation) is operating in Ukraine delivering essential supplies and evacuating civilians from dangerous areas.
Money raised will go directly on operations, the establishment of a HQ, purchase of a van to deliver much needed goods, food, medicine - and to provide evacuations. No money will be used to fund administration or team wages; we are covering our own costs.
Funding Target Extended 23 July 2024
Hi all - we are about the reach our goal of raising $500,000 for two years of humanitarian support to Ukraine.
So we’ve decided to extend the goal and keep going!
With your generous help and indefatigable support, we have achieved a lot during this time and I thought it was time we reflected on the highlights as detailed below.
Kiwi K.A.R.E, a registered New Zealand Charitable Organisation, has been operating in Ukraine since May 2022, and has provided invaluable support as follows:
* Delivered hundreds of tonnes of humanitarian and medical aid to front line cities and towns;
*Conducted numerous civilian evacuations, including long-haul evacuations of entire family groups to western Europe;
*Conducted mobile health clinics in newly liberated red zones as part of a medical outreach programme;
* Fabricated and delivered over 2500 wood burning stoves and water boilers for civilians without power and water;
* Managed the International logistics of moving 33 ambulances from New Zealand and Australia to Western Europe, with the additional purchase of one truck and six support vehicles within Europe to maintain their operations in Ukraine;
* All the aforementioned has been funded through private donations from generous New Zealanders, through effective fundraising initiatives and regular presentations to business and community groups.
