Somewhere not too far from you, a child is missing out on the education that could set him or her up with skills for life. That child could be living in the next street, or maybe a few kilometres away. Although he or she is enrolled at the local school, all too often there’s a blank in the attendance register. When it’s pouring with rain in the middle of winter, and you don’t have decent shoes or a raincoat, the easy decision is to stay at home. Or maybe there’s no food in the house until the next payday. You can fill up with water from the school drinking fountain but you’re not going to be learning very much that day. Make a commitment to support a child on the KidsCan StandTall waiting list with a donation of $15 or more per month. 100% of your donation will be used to support a child in need, not for marketing or administration purposes.

Every day thousands of Kiwi kids living in poverty don't get to choose what shoes they will wear. They simply don't own any. They are going to school during these cold winter months without shoes and socks to keep their little feet warm and free from foot injury. This has a major impact on their health and learning ability.
