Thank you New Zealand for your support

Once again New Zealanders have supported our Annual Appeal

Once again New Zealand you have supported our annual appeal and your donations will support our services for the 620,000 New Zealanders with a diagnosis of arthritis.

“For that I would like to extend a heart-felt thank you” said Sandra Kirby CEO, to the thousands of volunteers, members and donors who helped to make our 2016 Arthritis Appeal Week a success. I know that while you were collecting you were also able to have conversations with people about their arthritis and refer them to our 0800 663 463 help line.”

We are proud to report that thanks to your ongoing generosity and support our total income stands at nearly $250,000.

We depend on fundraising for 75 per cent of our income; it is paramount to our success. Without your generous donations, we wouldn’t be able to help the over 620,000 New Zealanders who live with the pain of arthritis everyday.

Although this year’s street appeal has concluded, our work to improve the health and well being of people who are affected by arthritis continues, and we still need your help. If you missed our collectors, you can still support us by making a donation via our website of a $20 donation by calling 0900 333 20

If you would like to learn more about the services we offer, how to volunteer, or make a donation, ring 0800 663 463 or visit www.arthritis.org.nz.
