WHY WE STARTED...
Laura Howard, an inspirational mother, founded Littlemore in 2013 (Auckland, New Zealand) after hearing a passing comment from her midwife about how some babies born in Auckland were sent home in baby-sized hospital gowns, as their families had no clothes for them. As a mum of a newborn herself, her heart was touched, and she knew she had to do something about it. Over the last 6 years, Littlemore has grown significantly from a tiny set up in Laura’s living room to the organisation it is today. WHAT WE DO...
We’re proud to be a volunteer-run not-for-profit organisation. Littlemore receive, sort and organise your good quality pre-loved (and new) baby clothes and other baby items, so they can be donated on to families with babies living in poverty and facing serious life challenges. Your donations will help ensure every family has the essential baby items they need to nurture their babies and keep them warm and safe during the critical first year of life. It’s also a great way to give your donated items a second life, share the joy of becoming a parent, and involve your family in thinking about recycling and giving to others. AWARDS...
