Koru Care Christchurch

Koru Care Christchurch Koru Care Christchurch provide life changing experiences for NZ children with serious and going medical conditions.

We have taken away 1320 deserving young people on overseas trips (240 to Australia, 10 trips and 1080 to California, 35 trips) since 1985 Koru Care Christchurch, which is a registered Charitable Trust has been active since 1985 and its hardworking passionate committee devote much of their spare time to fundraising and organising events and trips. Koru Care Christchurch have taken away over 1,320 deserving young people on our trips. Such an experience is educational, fun, personally empowering and a means of further developing their social and life skills set. It enables them to forget for a short time their own serious medical problems and enjoy themselves as children should. It costs $6,000 per child with Air New Zealand sponsoring a seat for each child. In addition to the carer support on the trips, two nurses and a doctor accompany the children, and everyone is required to have travel insurance and fortunately this has never needed to be claimed. For children unable to travel Air New Zealand has put on special local flights over the past two years on a Dreamliner for the children and their carers.
