'No-one should have to Choose' - 2018 Salvation Army Winter Appeal

Imagine being forced to choose between providing food, warmth and shelter for you and your family.

Sadly, this is a decision that thousands of Kiwi families living in poverty are forced to make each winter—whether to feed their children at the expense of paying a power bill, or to miss a rent payment—falling further into crippling debt so a family member can visit a doctor.

Winter is one of the busiest times of the year for The Salvation Army, with more people seeking emergency support with the basics of survival—food, warmth and shelter—as well as long-term care such as budgeting, counselling and life skills.

No-one should have to choose. The Salvation Army wants every Kiwi to have enough to make it through a tough winter, and the cold winters beyond.
