Bring hope to the table this Christmas
A small gesture can make a big
difference for a family this Christmas.
What is Christmas Box?
Christmas Box supplies food essentials to over two hundred thousand people every year across New Zealand, Australia and the Cook Islands, providing hope to the table, that lasts beyond a treat at Christmas.
This year we aim to pack 35,000 Christmas Boxes for New Zealand and Cook Islands
Right now, kiwi families are facing some really big challenges, and many find themselves struggling to make ends meet. For some, this will mean Christmas won't be a time to celebrate.
This Christmas, give the gift of hope. With just a $40 donation, you have an opportunity to help those who need it most. With Christmas Box, 100% of contributions goes to not only feeding a family but will also provide much-needed hope. Only together, can we bring hope to those in need all across Aotearoa. We can't do it alone.

“I delivered the boxes to families in our school. So many kids turn up to school every day with no lunch, no morning tea, no bag and most of them without breakfast. Some of these families are grandparents raising grandchildren”.

Principal, Western Heights School

“My two youngest goes ‘Mum, mum, is that ours?’… Just seeing the expression on their faces, it just told a big story. It was just happiness, tears, and everything… that meant a lot to me.”
