Lifeline Aotearoa: No one thinks less of you

$7,080 of $50,000 goal
Given by 278 generous donors in around 6 months

Lifeline is asking Kiwis to make NZ an even better place where we look out for each other and it's ok to ask for help.

Nationwide

Donate the cost of a cup of coffee today to Lifeline Aotearoa and help Jono and Ben spread the word to Kiwis that no one will think less of you if you ask for help.

After losing one of his best mates, presenter Jono Pryor made a heartfelt plea for everyone to reach out and ask for support.

Jono’s brave public comments were all it took for several people to reach out. “This is all I needed,” said one of the callers to Lifeline Aotearoa. Let’s continue to help more than 120,000 New Zealanders each year with this lifesaving support service that receives no government funding.

Donate the value of a cup of coffee today and post your support on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat or LinkedIn letting your whanau know it’s ok to ask for help. Using the hashtags #here4you and #lifelineaotearoa your post will appear on the website noonethinkslessofyou.co.nz along with other New Zealanders who have pledged their support.

Get behind this campaign to make sure everyone in New Zealand knows of at least one person that would not think no less of them for asking for help.

Talking about her problems really helped  10 July 2017

We recently heard from a caller who said that talking about her problems has really helped her.

Over the years she’s called Lifeline a handful of times – sometimes she’s gone years without calling, other times she’s called more. She said she doesn’t know what she’d do without Lifeline being there - “sometimes when I’m freaking out, I just need a short call with someone and it makes a world of difference”.

Thank you so much for making this possible! It would be really great if you could share this link (https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/nolessofyou) with your friends and family and ask them to get involved - the more support we get, the more people we're able to help.
