Crohn's and Colitis New Zealand Charitable Trust

CCNZ is a charitable trust which provides support to those affect by Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

Wellington

Our mission is to provide support to those affected by Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) & their families through support services, patient education, professional education & patients’ rights advocacy. CCNZ promotes public & professional awareness of IBD, its risks, treatment & mitigation. The organisation promotes, publicises & funds research into IBD in NZ in support of better therapies and, ultimately, a cure.

We continuously work to empower patients and their families, improve public awareness and help normalise the disease. We support those affected and help them cope with symptoms and improve their sense of wellbeing by facilitating opportunities to communicate with others affected by IBD and ultimately improve the quality of their lives.

More about us

Our mission is to make lives more liveable for everyone in NZ affected by IBD. We offer information channels, education and support networks. We seek to enhance their capability to live in a hope-filled environment which will contribute to their happiness.

💜 A reminder of what your support makes possible 💜  19 August 2026

To everyone who has supported Crohn's & Colitis New Zealand (CCNZ) through our Givealittle page, thank you. Whether you've donated, shared our fundraising efforts, attended an event, or helped spread awareness, you've played a part in making our work possible.

Every contribution helps CCNZ support New Zealanders living with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis through advocacy, education, resources, peer support, awareness initiatives, and programmes like Camp Purple Live.

While applications are open for Camp Purple, the fundraising doesn't stop. Programmes like Camp Purple rely on the generosity of our community to help cover the costs of providing a safe, inclusive, and memorable experience for every camper. Every donation helps turn Camp Purple from an idea into a life-changing reality for young people living with IBD.

If you'd like to support Camp Purple, you can donate here or through our Camp Purple Givealittle page: 🔗 https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/help-make-magic-happen-camp-purple-live-2027

Thank you for being part of our community and helping us continue to support New Zealanders living with IBD. 💜
