I'm happy to hear from New Zealand Red Cross from time to time.
Your donation and personal information are protected under our Privacy Policy

Thank you so much for your donation. Here at home, you are helping to ensure our most vulnerable neighbours receive nutritious meal deliveries throughout the week and important social connection. You are also helping to provide vital guidance and reassurance to former refugees, as well as helping us be prepared to give critical assistance to people facing disaster and crisis at a moment’s notice. 

As part of the largest humanitarian network in the world, we hope that you are proud to assist in the delivery of all the vital work that we do, to protect vulnerable people at home in New Zealand, across the Pacific, and around the world. 

Whether in crisis, disaster, or conflict, your help is needed today to deliver life-changing support to people where the need is greatest – here in New Zealand and around the world. 

Every day, your support helps people in their moment of need. It helps us to deliver hot meals to people in our communities who struggle to cook for themselves, provides guidance and reassurance to former refugee families, and provides critical assistance to people affected by a disaster.

In the video below, Will Benefield, Deputy Team Leader for one of our Disaster Welfare and Support Teams, takes you behind the scenes of one of his team’s training sessions. Your generosity is so important to keep our teams equipped and ready.

Your support will help sustain the vital humanitarian work that makes a real difference across our communities in Aotearoa New Zealand. With your generosity, we can continue to:

Ensure our Disaster Welfare and Support Teams are trained and ready to help New Zealanders caught up in floods, tornadoes, and other emergencies – bringing not just practical assistance, but the much-needed psychological support to help people through crises. 
Deliver meals every week and offer much-needed social connection and reassurance. 
Help former refugees start new lives here in New Zealand every year, providing guidance, welcome and comfort.

Every contribution can go such a long way in helping people in need, giving communities hope, strength, and reassurance when it matters most. Your compassion and generosity make this impact possible – donate today to help where the need is greatest.

Finally, don’t forget – Donations over $5.00 could allow you to claim 33.33% back from the IRD.
