Becky’s Story
Having some gifts and extra treats at Christmas isn't possible for many families across Auckland. Thanks to our Auckland Angels, Becky and her family get some relief from the daily pressure of bills.
“My kids have never had a big birthday or Christmas – it's thanks to the Mission that I can put gifts under the tree and a meal on the table when Christmas rolls around.”
Hear from Tara, GM Food Security at the Mission about the importance of our Angels!
“Auckland Angels, is a fantastic way for our staff to make a real difference at Christmas for families in our community. It brings people together through generosity and shared purpose, whether they’re donating, collecting, or encouraging colleagues to get involved. We’d encourage other businesses and organisations to join in too — it’s a simple but meaningful way to support the community and help make Christmas brighter for families who need it most.”
