We strive to relieve poverty by supplying families in hardship with baby items, emotional support, clothing, food, and other necessities. We will advance the community by bringing people together using community spirit to help each other out when needed. Mummys In Need acts as a crisis support agency to help with material aid when a child or baby is at risk or suffering. We primarily work through agency requests so our families, caregivers, whanau will need to get in touch with a midwife, Plunket nurse, support worker, social worker or case worker and ask them to do a referral after assessing their needs. We work closely alongside the NZ police, Work and Income, Family Success Matters, Family Start, Midwives, and other organizations to provide those in hardship with the basic essentials. Kindness - We rely on the generosity of the community. We believe it is essential for the world to go round. Courage - It takes a lot to ask for help. Having the courage to step up and ask for help is something important as we know it’s not easy. Dignity - We believe families should feel worthy and appreciated. Equality - We are driven by equality. We believe every baby and every family deserves the same treatment and we intend to provide the same experience where possible to every single person that gets help via Mummys In Need. Sustainability - We understand how fast babies grow out of items and these can then be left unused or hardly touched. We are a platform for these items to be passed on and given a new life by recycling from one home to another.
