Providing support to New Zealand's Little Miracles

Your donations through The Good Registry make a difference to some of our youngest New Zealanders, right through to some of our oldest.

Starting with our littlest New Zealanders, our charity partner The Little Miracles Trust exists to support the 5000+ babies who are born prematurely in Aotearoa every year, and to be alongside their families. 

The Little Miracles Trust has received $32,000 from our givers at The Good Registry so far (as of August 2023).

CEO Rachel Friend says that generosity from our givers has had a massive impact on the work they do to support the whānau of premature and unwell babies across Aotearoa.

"To put this in perspective, 10% of whānau will spend time with their babies in intensive care and for each of those whānau we provide care packs on admission to the unit," Rachel says.

"The donations received through The Good Registry have helped us supply 1,600 of these packs made up of vital pieces for a stay in the newborn intensive care unit. 

"In addition to this, The Good Registry provides our supporters with an easy and environmentally friendly way for them to fundraise on our behalf, be it to mark special milestones for whānau such as a first or a fifth birthdays using a gift registry or purchasing their gift cards to promote the giving of joy and promote the reduction of waste.  A win-win all round."

Thank you to everyone who has given through The Good Registry to help the Little Miracles Trust wrap their arms around our littlest New Zealanders and their families.

Our givers can donate to Little Miracles Trust (or any of our 65 other charity partners) with our Good Gift Cards, or by creating a registry for a special event like a birthday.
