The Asthma and Respiratory Foundation NZ

The Foundation supports the 700,000 New Zealanders affected by a respiratory illness through education, raising awareness and research.

Wellington

One in seven kids in New Zealand live with asthma, and we need your help to raise awareness and reduce this statistic.

Asthma is prevalent within our communities, with almost 4 children in every classroom being affected. So educating young New Zealanders on how to deal with a classmate or friend’s asthma emergency is vital.

Despite receiving no government funding, we aim to make all New Zealanders asthma experts, and help improve the quality of life for those who live with the condition.

The Foundation provides free resources for children and their whānau to learn about asthma, such as the interactive website Learn About Lungs, and the Sailor the Pufferfish asthma musical; but we need your help in keeping these vital services running.

Please consider donating today, and help Kiwi kids breathe easier.
