why it matters

"Just wanted to send a big thank you for allowing my aunt to come in today and choose gifts for her babies. She has been diagnosed with stage four cancer and this will be her last Christmas with us. She was so grateful as she had to stop working and wasn’t sure how she was going to afford gifts this year. The Kindness Collective saved Christmas for us!". - Whānau feedback

For 10 years we've been providing Christmas to children and families in need, and so far have delivered toys and food to over 26,450 children. This year, we need your help more than ever.

There are 3,121 children currently on the waitlist, please help Santa visit every single one of them.

STAN WALKER joy

We've teamed up with Stan Walker to bring joy to whānau in need through the release of his Christmas song and animated video ‘Te Toi O Te Kirihimete’ (Favourite Part About Christmas), with all proceeds of the song supporting our mahi.
