It's very sad to see what some families are going through & to see this is happening within our own community has just given us the motivation to get up & do something about it.

So we are starting this here in Auckland too, we are looking for more volunteers, so if you'd like to become a volunteer, please email us at kidsfirsttheyareourfuture@gmail.com.

Yes times are time and thank goodness for the SVDP However having seen both sides of the fence while its tough living on benefits at least in NZ you do get help, so while so do genuinly strike hard times there are a number who abuse our countries generous nature. NZ does have to change tack and stop being a welfare country. If the trouble does hit the fan then yes it is good to be able to have a support system for people however support is not a choice it is a need
