Homes of Hope NZ

18/02/2026

Meet our next shortlisted charity: Homes of Hope NZ 🏡

Homes of Hope provides stable, whānau-style homes where siblings stay together, backed by therapeutic support to help tamariki process trauma and build resilience. Their goal is to support children to either be reunited with their whānau or transition into a forever home alongside their siblings.

A core part of their approach is wrap-around therapeutic support, combining consistent caregiving with evidence-based interventions including Child-Centred Play Therapy (CCPT).

At the heart of their mahi is the belief that every child deserves to feel safe, loved, and supported, and that with the right care, therapy, and community connection, children and their whānau can thrive and break cycles of trauma.

This year's focus is Personal Safety and Security for women, girls, and whānau. Want to vote? Donate by the end of February! 💛 https://www.acornfoundation.org.nz/give/womens-fund
