More than 1400 children in New Zealand are waiting for a sponsor like you.

Sponsor a child to give them the essentials: clothing, bedding, uniform – the things they need to enjoy school, and take part in their community.

Every day 1 in 5 Kiwi kids goes without the essentials people take for granted.

This has a profound impact on a child’s health, education and wellbeing.

Variety helps children stay healthy and grow well by providing mobility and medical devices, healthcare, glasses, car seats, beds and bedding.

Variety provides essential items for learning and school including uniforms, digital devices, stationery, and activity fees.

Variety gives children opportunities to reach their potential through extracurricular activities, sports, music, and therapy.

Apply for funding for your child or refer a child from your school or community.
