Support Our Kaupapa

At Te Puna Waiora - Desert Spring Ministries Trust, we believe in walking alongside our community—nurturing growth, restoring dignity, and empowering whānau through practical, meaningful support.

From financial mentoring and food parcels to cultural programs and creative workshops, your donation helps us reach more people, more often, with the awhi they need.

Why Donate?

Your support directly funds:

  • 🌱 Free financial mentoring and literacy courses.

  • 🧺 Food and hygiene parcels for families in need

  • 🧠 Parenting and learner driver licence support

  • 🧵 Social & Craft group workshops that reduce isolation

  • 🗣️ Te Reo Māori and cultural reconnection programs

Every dollar makes a difference—whether it’s helping a young parent gain confidence, a whānau put kai on the table, or a kaumātua reconnect with language and culture.
