Foundation Donation: Parent to Parent

Date: 28 Feb 2018

Parent to Parent is a not-for-profit organisation formed in 1983 by parents and professionals to support the families of babies, children, teens and adults with any type of disability or health impairment. The organisation operates the only parent support network for families raising a child with a disability in New Zealand.

Parent to Parent operates a network of more than 600 specially-trained volunteer support parents, and connects those parents to families new to the world of disability. Each family is connected to a support parent whose child has the same or similar disability to yours.

Support Parents are there to offer a listening ear. With their ‘lived experience’, they understand the challenges and unique joy of caring for a child or family member in a similar situation to yours, and can offer practical solutions.

Harcourts Monarch Real Estate is proud to support Parent to Parent with a donation through the Harcourts Foundation, which will provide support for families raising a child with a disability.

No matter what the cause, the Harcourts Foundation provides support to hundreds of organisations, enriching the lives of thousands of people in our communities.
