Our Beliefs

Local Impact

KAPITI FOOD BANK

Since 2021 Connect has partnered with the local Kāpiti Foodbank. Each month on “Foodbank Sunday” food items are collected for those in need.

FREEDOM LIFE TE NIKAU

Te Nikau’s mission is to facilitate change in men and women from dependent and/or addictive living to constructive living, using Christian principles. In addition to our monthly financial support, in 2021 we were able to give a brand new mini van valued at $45,000.

CHRISTMAS BOX

Christmas Box supplies food essentials to over two hundred thousand people every year across New Zealand, Australia and the Cook Islands, providing hope to the table, that lasts beyond a treat at Christmas. At Connect we are proud to be part of this initiative.
