Nurturing Families
— Taranaki Centre
Nurturing Families Taranaki, our dedicated brand in the region, is coordinated by Roseanne alongside a committed team of volunteers.
This branch supports families facing hardship by collecting and redistributing essential children's items to those in need. We provide a wide range of donations, including clothing, footwear, nappies, toiletries, books, school and kindy bags, lunch boxes, and drink bottles.
Our support extends to pregnant mothers, newborns, children, and young people up to 18 years of age. We also assist grandparents who are full-time caregivers, foster parents, and single dads. In partnership with social welfare agencies such as Plunket, Tui Ora, Barnardos, Te Puna Trust, and the Stratford Teen Parent Unit, we receive referrals to ensure our resources reach those who need them most.
Additionally, we welcome self-referrals from families in the community.
