A disaster can change a person's life in an instant - but so can you.
By ticking 'make it monthly,' you'll be joining our community of Project Partners (regular donors), helping vulnerable people across the street and around the world, making it possible for us to prepare for disasters, disease and conflict.
The events in Ukraine are deeply concerning. After enduring eight years of conflict, civilians caught up in the crisis are now faced with even more fear, loss, and devastation.
People are losing their homes and their lives. Many are seeking refuge in basements and underground railway stations, or fleeing to neighbouring countries.
We are committed to continuing to be there for those caught up in the devastating crisis.
Please donate today if you can. 100% of the funds donated will be used to help the people of Ukraine, with much of the funding directed to the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC), who are on the ground in Ukraine and neighbouring countries providing support to the many people in need.
With your help, Red Cross teams will continue to respond to the humanitarian needs of those affected.
The situation is unpredictable, and we don't know how it will evolve and what exactly will be needed in the coming hours, days, or weeks.
But we do know, as the situation escalates, that humanitarian support and recovery needs are massive and will continue to grow, and Red Cross is responding.
Your donation will help Red Cross teams in Ukraine:
- Protect and support the civilian population, including psychosocial support
- Distribute immediate relief such as food, water, bedding, and other essential items to civilians, including those on the move
- Provide life-saving first aid to the wounded and sick
- Re-establish family links for people who have been separated from family and loved ones, including vulnerable people such as children or the elderly.
You can make a difference for people caught up in the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine. Please donate today.
Also, don't forget that when you make a donation of over $5.00, you can claim 33% of it back from IRD.

By donating to where the need is greatest, you will help us reach those who need us most, when they need it most, both here in Aotearoa New Zealand and around the world.
You can help us prepare for and respond to emergencies, whether that be natural disasters or man-made crises. You can help us provide vital services in our local communities, such as delivering a hot meal to someone isolated and needing extra support or assisting former refugees as they rebuild their lives here after escaping fear, conflict, and persecution.
Here are some of the ways your donation could make a difference in someone’s life today:
- Disaster response and recovery: providing life-changing assistance to people, families and communities who have been affected by unpredictable and often devastating natural disasters and enable those in disaster-prone areas to build resilience.
- Meals on Wheels: delivering over 12,000 hot meals a week to ill, elderly, or individuals recovering from hospital treatment who would benefit from some extra support from a friendly red cross representative, helping them extend their health and independence.
- Pathways to settlement: supporting former refugees as they set up their new homes and give them the tools they need to rebuild their lives across eight settlement locations in Aotearoa New Zealand.
We want to be there for everyone who needs us, but we simply cannot do this without you.
Your support is invaluable and means that we can be ready to respond to any national or global emergency while still making a positive difference in the lives of those in need here in our local communities.
So please, donate today, and together, we can make a meaningful and long-lasting impact where the need is greatest.
