Take the step with us in raising awareness for elder abuse in Aotearoa New Zealand

Nationwide

Every day, older people across Aotearoa New Zealand take courageous steps, reaching out, asking for help, and seeking safety. And every day, we’re here supporting those who are there to answer.

Age Concerns around the country receive 12 calls about elder abuse every workday - real people facing harm, isolation, or self-neglect, and looking for someone they can trust.

Your support ensures that when an older person or someone they know takes that first brave step, we can be right beside them with care and practical help.

Today, we’re inviting you to take your next step with us.

2% Effective Fee
On average, fundraisers pay just 2% to use Givealittle. This is one of the lowest effective fees in New Zealand fundraising. We charge a 5% platform fee to cover the cost of running the platform. Because most donors choose to top up their donation to cover this fee, the effective cost paid by fundraisers is about 2%. That means around 98 cents of every dollar raised goes to the cause.
