Vision Statement

Christchurch Women’s Refuge is New Zealand’s leading social change agency preventing violence against women, young people and children.

Mission Statement

To create a society where all women, young people and children live life free from violence by:

Continuing to provide a safe haven for women and children
Continuing to provide a 24 hour phone service
Continuing education of clients, children, and the public
Lobbying Government
Community Outreach

The services we supply are less than 25% goverenment funded. Without public support and grants we cannot continue to help women and children affected by violence change their lives.

If you would you like to help us create that change there are many ways - you can donate money or certain goods, donate your time, or make a bequest to help us in the future. You can support the events we organise, other events that we benefit from, or you could undertake a fundraising event of your own. We appreciate any help you can give us - thank you.
