After the successful emergency appeal “SOS - Save Our StarJam”, the StarJam team is working hard to support their jammers.

“The support from the community was incredible and unexpected. We achieved our $100,000 target and more. It has been a testament to our whānau coming together, along with the wider community who have shared the campaign widely and generously donated,” says CEO Gilli Sinclair.

StarJam feels very grateful to its community, especially the Jammers (young people with disabilities who attend StarJam), their parents and caregivers, tutors and volunteers, staff and everyone who works behind the scenes to support their Jammers.

The current times are difficult times, but the team at StarJam believe that the doors must remain open for places that bring social connection and joy to Jammers and their whānau, and therefore, they work hard to achieve this at StarJam.

The organisation is currently working on medium to long term initiatives including qualified direct marketing; increased corporate sponsorship; peer to peer fundraising and other exciting initiatives.

All donations are welcomed via our website https://www.starjam.org/donate/. As StarJam is a registered charity all donations are eligible for a 33.33% a tax rebate for gifts to Charity.
