A message from Kindness Collective
Over Christmas, thanks to the support of people like you, the Kindness Collective provided 3,188 families and 11,598 children with 35,336 toys and 80,458 treats from the Christmas Joy Store. Across the country, the Collective also delivered 17,022 toys to 8,511 children and 1,314 whānau food for Christmas Day.
For many families, it was more about just having toys and food for Christmas. It was the chance to have a memorable time with their families, free of pressure and stress. It was a reminder that people care and that there truly is hope. KC received so many pieces of feedback from families whose lives were made better as a result of our community's kindness. A mum of three summed it up after visiting the Joy Store, “thank you for reminding me of love and that there is always light at the end of the tunnel”.
