KidsCan Donation

Multiple donation values available – please specify when donating.

KidsCan believes that education is a child’s ticket out of poverty and gives them the opportunity for a better future. But kids can’t learn when they are cold, wet and hungry.

So they partner with schools and early childhood centres across New Zealand to give the 1 in 6 Kiwi kids affected by poverty the essentials they need to learn.

KidsCan’s food programme provides nutritious, hearty breakfast, snack and lunch foods to 55,000 hungry school kids every day. Their clothing programme gives children new fleece-lined rain jackets, sturdy shoes and socks, so they arrive at school warm and dry, no matter the weather.

Their ECE programme provides preschoolers with a jacket, shoes, socks, gumboots and freshly prepared meals daily.

KidsCan partner schools and ECEs report that their programmes help increase participation and attendance of their students. KidsCan alumni say that being warm and dry at school, with a guaranteed meal every day, helped them with their learning and to achieve their goals.
Since KidsCan was founded in a garage in 2005, the organisation has grown to become one of New Zealand’s leading charities dedicated to helping Kiwi kids affected by poverty. Their programmes are available to 200,000 children in over 1,000 schools and early childhood centres, with 5 million items being sent from their Auckland warehouse each year.

None of this would be possible without the support of generous Kiwis whose donations help ensure no Kiwi kid goes without.
