Feed families in need this Christmas!
Christmas is just around the corner and for most kiwis this means preparing our homes to host a nice warm meal, but for some this can be a really hard time of the year.
Filled with food essentials and Christmas treats, a Christmas Box is a much-needed addition to the table and also a much-needed reminder that people care. This year we will deliver 45,000 boxes to those in need but we need your help!
Help us bring hope to the table for those struggling by donating a Christmas Box for just $40 at christmasbox.co.nz.
