Kiwi Outreach wants to help struggling families with the huge expense of sending their children to school.
Often in life things simply go wrong, loss of a job, health issues, marriage split, or the business fails.
And it is through those times we can help. It is about Kiwis Helping Kiwis.
Our main purpose and focus has been on our Student Sponsorship Program, helping struggling families in genuine need with schooling expenses. Our commitment to the family and student is to help them over a long period of time, through their entire high school life. We supply all schooling needs and non-voluntary costs like school uniforms, sports uniform, equipment, laptop, stationery and books, school camps and activities.
Thanks to the kind donations of our local supporters, we’re able to offer assistance to families and students in our area via our Student Sponsorship Program. Our student sponsorship program is for families that are struggling to meet school costs. We partner with Cambridge High School and Cambridge Community House to identify families who are in real need and applicants must supply a budget through Cambridge Community House and interviewed by Kiwi Outreach. We also offer our families support and friendship by reaching out a hand to them and building relationships, this has had a very positive impact over the years.
At Kiwi Outreach, we prioritize a rigorous vetting process to ensure that your hard-earned money reaches the individuals who need it most. Every applicant undergoes a thorough interview, and we carefully analyze their budget, extending budgeting services to those who require assistance. Rest assured, when you donate to Kiwi Outreach, 100% of your contribution goes directly towards helping those in need.
Our dedicated board members are all volunteers, deeply committed to making a difference in our community. To keep our administrative costs to a minimum, we rely on the generosity of individuals who donate funds specifically for this purpose. We are incredibly fortunate to have the support of a local lawyer and accountant, both of whom generously donate their professional services at no cost to our organisation.
At Kiwi Outreach, transparency and accountability are at the heart of what we do. We strive to be good stewards of your contributions, ensuring that every penny is used to create positive change in the lives of those we serve. Join us in making a difference today!
Our commitment: 100% of the money donated stays in Cambridge.
