Your donation will do Buckets of Good in these three key areas:

Emergency and disaster response

From local disasters like Kiriana’s in the cyclone, to global crises like last year’s earthquakes in Syria and Türkiye, help us be ready to respond, changing lives, reuniting families and reducing human suffering.

Meals on Wheels

Help sustain this essential service in our communities, delivering nutritious meals for some of our most vulnerable and isolated neighbours.

Supporting former refugees

Help families who have fled their homeland to build a new life here in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Also, don’t forget when you donate over $5, you can claim 33.33 percent of your donation back from IRD!

Thank you for helping people in extreme need, here in New Zealand and overseas.

Like you, New Zealand Red Cross has a bucket list.
 
Rather than a luxury cruise, it's disaster supplies to help Kiriana.
