Who we are
At Have a Heart Charitable Trust, we are a community of compassion committed to growing great families at the heart of our neighbourhoods. We walk alongside the most vulnerable connecting, supporting, and creating safe, happy homes where love and dignity can flourish.
Our events and projects strength whānau (families), uplift other ethnic communities, and foster meaningful intergenerational and multicultural participation We believe community is richer when every voice is heard and every person belongs. We work hand-in-hand with community leaders, social service providers, and everyday people at the grassroots—because lasting change begins when we unite around a shared mission of hope and care.
Rooted in faith, we also create spaces for people to express their love for God in practical, everyday ways—joining Him where He is already at work in the lives of others. Together, we’re building a more connected, compassionate, and equitable future.
