Where funds are needed most
Our current appeals
Whether you give a little or a lot, you contribute to our mahi, supporting 5,000 disabled people and their families. We also assist many more through schemes like the Mobility Parking permit scheme, which helps over 170,000 people access their local communities.
Founded in 1935, we partner with disabled people, their families and whānau to enable them to have choice and control in their lives. We also support local communities to become disability aware, engaged, physically accessible, and inclusive. Support from caring Kiwis lets us deliver quality services that are unique:
We visit people in their homes and local community - even the remote ones.
Enhancing mana. We tailor supports to individuals – supporting disabled people to increase the control and choice they have in their lives.
We are the largest disability support provider for people with all impairment types in New Zealand.
Our current appeals need your support. Please donate, or share with your friends and family to spread the word:
Make a big impact with a monthly gift
If you’d like to spread your donation across the year, a monthly gift is easy to setup. Get behind our caring team with a regular donation. We rely on donations like these to help us provide quality services in a way that works for disabled people and their whānau. Just 7% is spent on administration each year.

If you have any questions about monthly giving, you can learn more in our frequently asked questions for donors.
Providing back up for families
It’s an unfair reality that families don’t always get the support their disabled child is entitled to. Some agencies and schools can be hard to deal with. Your gift can help us give support that meets each family’s needs.

Living independently
Our work is focused on enabling disabled people to have full control and choice in their lives. We tailor our services to every person’s individual needs. Chrissy and Mandy’s story is a great example of our unique approach.
Chrissy and Mandy may be cousins, but the inseparable pair are more like sisters. The two women have lived in Manawatū for much of their lives, sometimes with family and, for Mandy, sometimes in residential care. Now, with the support of our team, they live together in a family-owned property in Feilding.
Mandy previously lived in residential care, an environment which can impact on day-to-day choice and freedoms for some people. To enable her to live independently, CCS Disability Action organised a team of support workers who live with the pair 24/7. “I like it a lot better here. I get treated really well.” Mandy says.
“Chrissy and Mandy are very close. They’ve been a big part of each other’s lives for a long time. It’s great that we’ve been able to put some support around them so they can live together in a way that works for them,” says service coordinator Sharleen.
We rely on donations to provide our services in a way that really works for disabled people. Our teams provide direct support to over 5,000 adults and children across Aotearoa New Zealand. Could you support our mahi with a gift of $25? Your gift can create positive change for people like Chrissy and Mandy.
We rely on donations to fund transport to remote areas – so no one misses out on support.
