Becoming a regular donor makes a huge difference!

Donating to PSO is giving us the means to provide essential community services to vulnerable people within Otago.

We work to support local people with emergency food parcels, help people take control of their debt through financial mentoring, support whānau and tamariki through parenting programmes and social work support. We work across agencies to help find the best outcomes for difficult issues like family harm, and advocate for those unable to do so for themselves.

The donations we receive are only used for services in Otago, they are not sent to other regions.

By donating a small amount every week or month, you can help us to:

✓  Provide social services throughout Otago, ensuring our teams can respond to whānau and individuals, including tamariki who need support or are affected by hardship

✓  Food security, with regular donations our foodbank can continue to offer food and support to those who urgently need it

✓  Maximise financial independence through our financial mentoring, money mates group and advocacy 

✓  Support older people in the community, combating isolation and loneliness through Visiting Volunteers and our day programmes Club Enliven and Dementia Mate Wareware 

For more information about becoming a regular donor, please call us on 477 7115, visit our donation page or email fundraising@psotago.org.nz

Whatever you can give will help make a difference. Thank you!
