With financial hardship rising by 25% across Aotearoa – whānau like Rose have been working tirelessly to make ends meet for their whānau.
“I had to work 70-80 hours a week, just to make sure my children had food & bills were paid… I’d get payday loans to make ends meet – just to pay the rent. ”
Double the difference for whānau: Donate to the appeal today, and your new regular gift will double the help* for families in need for the next 2 YEARS!
When you become one of 25 new regular givers before 31st March, not only will you journey alongside a person like Rose — but your gift is doubled to support more whānau.
*thanks to a $25,000 pledge from a few long-standing generous supporters who want your impact to go further.
Every dollar counts because there are 200+ whānau who have reached out to CAP this year. They need awhi (care) and free practical Debt Help to enable them to thrive in 2025.

“I was humbled by the prayer… Just the encouraging words that were coming out of her mouth and I could feel the warmth and the love that was coming through her prayer. I was very, very grateful at the time… for her to come to my house and sit there…”
