Do you want to make a difference by making your community a safer place? You can become involved in PILLARS and help us work towards breaking the cycle of crime in New Zealand

You can partner in our quest by:

• Arranging payroll giving through  your employer
• Volunteering to mentor a prisoner's child
• Gifting your time for governance, marketing and fundraising of PILLARS work
• Offering your expertise
• Becoming a corporate sponsor
• Becoming involved in our schools' support programme 
• Donating to PILLARS

Giving to PILLARS is always appreciated. It costs about $3,000 to set up and support a "match." This allows for establishment (including screening) and ongoing support of the relationship and training for the mentor.

PILLARS is a charity that is well managed on a tight budget. We are judicious in our spending of funding that comes mainly from charitable trusts, businesses and individual donations and a quarter of our income from Child Youth & Family.

Any amount you are able to donate helps the work to continue. If you can support a "match" that is fantastic! But we gratefully receive any donations in the spirit they are given. It all helps. Your donation is tax deductible. If you want to donate you can go straight to the top of this page and click the Donate Now where you will be taken to a secure site. Alternatively you can contact PILLARS directly.
