It's sad to say goodbye

It is with heavy hearts that we share that I Got Your Back Pack has now closed as we’ve been unable to secure funding to continue.

​

This decision hasn’t come easily and we remain hopeful another non-profit will take up this service in the future.

​

Because of the generosity of every one of our donors, partners and sponsors, 28,465 backpacks were delivered throughout Aotearoa during our years of operation. Your support has never been “just a donation” — it was a lifeline, and it changed lives with dignity, care, and compassion.

​

While every single donation has made a very real difference and is sincerely appreciated, we would like to thank, in particular, our friends at Bunnings, Canon, GreenScene, Whitcoulls and Yarnteeze, all of whom have provided significant ongoing support over the years.

Thank you for believing in this kaupapa and for standing with us every step of the way. We are sincerely grateful for your kindness and generosity over the years.
