Every child is unique and has different hopes, dreams and needs.

For as little as $20 a month, you can help give children across New Zealand the learning aids, sporting opportunities, medical and mobility equipment, and everyday essentials they need to thrive.

As a Hero for Kids monthly supporter, your donations are combined with those of other generous donors to fund the most urgent and immediate needs of children.

This allows us to help hundreds of children and young people across New Zealand each year.

Frequently asked questions

We receive hundreds of applications each year for beds and warm bedding, medical and mobility equipment, digital learning aids and other urgently needed items. As a Hero for Kids monthly supporter, your donations are combined with those of other generous donors to fund the most urgent and immediate of needs, one child at a time. This allows us to help hundreds of children across New Zealand each year.
We’ll send out your tax certificate at the end of the financial year (in April). This will cover all your donations, so you don’t have to keep track of several different receipts. If you make a donation in addition to your regular monthly payments (such as a donation to one of our appeals), you’ll receive a confirmation via email; then this will be reflected on your annual tax certificate. Donations are eligible for a NZ tax credit of 33.3c in the dollar.
Variety does not rely on government funding. It is supporters like you who make our work possible. This is why every person who chooses to join our Hero for Kids team is a gamechanger!
