PILLARS

On any given day more than 23,000 children are affected by having a parent in prison in New Zealand. Without the right support, these children are over nine times more likely than other Kiwi kids to end up in prison as adults. They are in a situation they didn’t choose, yet they face a sentence of their own. Children of prisoners become the invisible victims of crime and need our support to live positive lives.

FIRST FOUNDATION

Too many young people are being held back by intergener­ational cycles of financial disadvanta­ge, without the support pathways or opportunit­ies for success that others have. First Foundation provides talented young people from socially challenged background­s with a four-year scholarshi­p, including financial assistance, paid work experience and a mentor, so they successful­ly navigate from school to university.

CHILD POVERTY ACTION GROUP

Child Poverty Action Group (CPAG) is committed to ending child poverty so all children can flourish. With New Zealand's ample resources, child poverty could be eliminated completely. CPAG undertakes research, education and advocacy to understand the causes, outcomes and solutions to poverty in New Zealand, working to bring about systemic change so no child is reliant on charity for the things they need to live their lives to the fullest. Your support allows us to speak more powerfully on behalf of New Zealand’s most vulnerable children.
