Nourish Trust

Help Nourish provide some sparkle this Christmas to 2,000 families in our local communities during what can be a tough time.

Wellington

Nourish@Christmas is a community group who provide hampers of food to families who are doing it tough at Christmas across the greater Wellington region.

What started out in 2014 as a one-off idea and providing 21 Christmas hampers in the Hutt Valley, has now snowballed and turned into providing 2,000 Christmas hampers of food this year across the Wellington. We are an entirely volunteer run group, and every dollar donated goes straight into providing hampers to families.

Since we started, we've provided hampers to 8,337 families and distributed groceries valued at $1.25m! The hampers are worth around $150 each, so this means for 2025 we needed to fundraise $300,000 to provide this food to families in our region this Christmas.

Every dollar donated takes us one step closer to achieving our goal. Thank you for helping us bring some sparkle to local families at Christmas.

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.
