The Christchurch Aunties is a network of over 6400 people helping women and children in Christchurch, Ashburton, and the Waimakariri and Selwyn Districts who have experienced family violence, have been displaced, and who are at risk.
Our vision is a Canterbury where all women and children who have been exposed to abuse and family harm, are safe, well supported and resourced, through the domestic violence agencies we collaborate with. Our model and our mahi is simple: Get basic, essential stuff to women and their families, quickly and seamlessly. It's a helping hand in their goal to change theirs and their families futures. And the awesome thing is, YOU can be a part of that change too! |

With a hectic 2022 year becoming a distant memory, we are working hard to continue the vision of the Christchurch Aunties.
Our forever generous community keeps getting bigger and better, and we are making new friends and growing our support networks, everywhere we go.
Well settled into our fit-for-purpose HQ office and storage facility, we are constantly looking at how we can improve our service delivery and engage with our followers.
2022 saw us welcome a new full time Manager, produce our first newsletter and connect with our very first 'company sponsor'.
Our regular HQ volunteers grew to 7x twice weekly 'Aunties' who constantly amaze us with their time and talents. We began to put some robust systems in place to make us more efficient, and we embraced technology to help us keep pace with the sector demands.
We also farewelled our Founder, along with a couple of long-standing trustees, and our Board of Governance grew, with four new appointees. It felt like a big year with loads of impact in our community- Thank you for your part in that.
Read our summary below to learn more about our earlier successes. and check back in later for our 1/04/22- 31/03/2023 year that was!
