Estimated Time: 1 - 8 Hours Over 1 - 1 Days

The Wellington City Mission works to identify and address people’s underlying issues to create positive outcomes. Each year we run our Christmas Star Campaign - last Christmas it was heart-warming to see thousands of people across Greater Wellington come together to be stars to families and individuals in need. Because of the generous support of Wellingtonians, we were able to feed around 3,000 people through our Christmas food parcels, provide kids with over 9,300 gifts to enjoy on Christmas Day, and our Drop-in Centre was able to feed over 60 people each day. Not only that, we were also able to support 31 other agencies that we work with during the year. And it's time to do it again! Our annual Street Day collection is great chance to “be someone’s star” and support the Wellington City Mission Christmas Star Appeal. This year's Street Day is happening on Friday 1 December, and you can get involved by organising a team to coordinate a collection site for the day.

What we Do
The Wellington City Mission is a charitable trust affiliated to the Anglican Church. It has been helping Wellingtonians in need for over 110 years, beginning in 1904 when it was part of St. Peter’s Church. In 1929, an Act of Parliament established The Mission as a separate entity. The Mission prides itself on being open to anyone who needs assistance – regardless of their religious belief, age, ethnicity or social background. Our four Mission programmes (Families, Youth, Independence, and Seniors) assist a range of people living in Greater Wellington’s communities. The Mission also operates an elder care residential facility (Kemp Home & Hospital).
