At Dayspring, we believe that every mother deserves access to the mental health support they need. Your involvement can make a significant difference in the lives of mothers and their tamariki in our community.

By fundraising for maternal mental health, you help us provide essential services, programmes, and resources to those who need them most.

Your support Matters: Here’s why:

Maternal mental health is crucial for the well-being of both mothers and their tamariki. Many wāhine experience challenges during and after pregnancy, and your fundraising efforts can help us:

  • Provide access to professional counselling and support groups for mothers experiencing mental health issues

  • Offer subsidised parenting courses to those most vulnerable parents

  • Facilitate support networks and activity-based groups for mothers to share their experiences and learn new skills

  • Connect mothers and families with essential resources

  • Advocate on behalf of mothers and whānau in need

Partnering with Workplaces

Encourage your workplace to support our work through New Zealand government’s Payroll Giving Programme.

You can give to Dayspring Trust and the donation is taken off your wages before your employer pays you. You’ll receive a tax credit of 33.33 cents for each dollar you donate. Your employer takes this amount off your PAYE for that pay.
