Donate

No one has ever become poor by giving – Anne Frank

The Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson’s Canterbury Charitable Trust relies on support from our members, community funders, and sponsors to allow us to continue our essential work. There are many ways in which you can help us to continue to provide our services and maintain our high level of support.

Please be aware, if you choose to donate funds to either MSNZ or Parkinson’s NZ, the funds will not be forwarded to this Trust.

Although we are affiliated with these organisations, we do not receive any funds from them and operate separately from them. We are the only organisation in Canterbury that offers services for MS and Parkinson’s.

If you wish for your donation to go to a specific area, simply specify this when donating and we will ensure that the funds are distributed there.

Online donation via our website

Payroll Giving

Ask your employer to subscribe you to this through IRD. This is a great way to give, as it goes out of your pay before it reaches your account, so you won’t even notice it going!

Entertainment App

This handy app gives you money off hundreds of restaurants and local businesses, including takeaways! You can still support our local businesses and save a little money at the same time. Entertainment gives a portion of the profits to the charity directly. Buy your membership with them here.
