Pay it Forward
Everyday shopping through Switch Your Spend already helps fund practical support for people and communities in need through our Pay It Forward initiatives.
But if you’d like to make an even more direct impact, Pay It Forward gives you the opportunity to fully fund a support box yourself.
These boxes are distributed through trusted community organisations and support networks across New Zealand to help provide practical everyday essentials to people and families doing it tough.
From toiletries and household products to baby and pet care, your generosity helps ensure more people have access to the essentials they need most.
Simply choose the box you’d like to give below, select how often you’d like to contribute, and we’ll take care of the rest.
Who receives the support?
We work alongside trusted community groups, charities, churches, support networks, and local initiatives across New Zealand to help identify where practical support is needed most.
Some support boxes are distributed through organisations already working directly within the community, while others are provided through local referrals and grassroots support networks helping connect us with individuals and families doing it tough.
From families needing an extra helping hand to community organisations supporting people through difficult seasons of life, every Pay It Forward box helps provide practical everyday essentials where they’re needed most.
And it’s all made possible thanks to you.
Nominate a family in need!
If you know a family that would appreciate a box of essentials, tell us who they are below and we'll make sure they get one.
