Koru Care Otago Charitable Trust

Koru Care Otago Charitable Trust

Our main objective since 1988 is to make dreams come true for Otago tamariki living with serious illnesses and/or disabilities.

Otago

Every year, Koru Care Otago makes dreams come true for Otago tamariki living with serious and/or lifelong illnesses, disabilities, neurodiversity or trauma by taking them to the Gold Coast of Australia. The experience we offer is educational, fun, personally empowering, and a means of further developing their social and life skills set.

More about us

Koru Care Otago is a registered charitable trust which fundraises to provide 12 amazing young Otago people with a weeklong trip of a lifetime. Our goal is to support these young people who would otherwise not have this opportunity to build confidence, create friendships and develop their potential towards becoming valued members of their communities. Some of our young people live with chronic illness, have experienced trauma, may struggle at school or need support to manage everyday activities in their learning and in their social relationships.

This year we had two amazing trips, one to Auckland and the other to the Gold Coast. These incredible young people took advantage of the amazing opportunities a Koru Care Otago trip offers and it was so wonderful to see them grow in the short time we cared for them. We are looking forward to taking more incredible young people from across Otago away in 2025! Thank you for helping us to continue these unforgettable trips of a lifetime.
