Clothe a kid, change a life.
What We Have Done
WHO WE ARE
We are a Waikato non profit organisation founded in 2015.
started with the simple belief that every child should have warm clothing, a warm bed at night and shoes on their feet.
We supply quality clothing packs to children in need across the Waikato. What started as a small opportunity to make a change within our community has blossomed into a fully fledged organisation that has helped supply clothing packs to over 5500 children in the past 6.5 years.
By providing families with clothing for their children we can reduce the wider impacts of poverty. Children that are well clothed participate in education better as they get sick less often also resulting in reduced doctors and hospital visits. We also believe that by providing clothing for these children, we can reduce the overall financial burden on families, enabling them to channel their limited funds into food and housing. Clothing is then in turn passed down from one family to another – assisting the wider community.
Our Process
01.
Clothes are Collected
Donating clothes is a great way to help others in need. We have a Drop Off location at Little Split P – 11 Liverpool Street, Hamilton. We accept donations of clothing and shoes from Newborn to size 12 years.
02.
Packaging
Each pack will have 4-5 sets of clothing, 2 sets of pyjamas, 2 jumpers, a hat, socks and shoes. In winter we will add a jacket or dressing gown if available. We ensure all clothing that goes in packs is still in good condition and work by the motto of “if I wouldn’t put it on my child, it won’t go in a pack”.
03.
Clothes are delivered
Once our clothes have been packaged up they are collected by our agencies who then forward them on to the families.
What Our People Say
