Help us raise $7000 to ensure a child with complex developmental delays and disabilities has access to early intervention when its needed.

The Champion Centre is a not-for-profit provider of early intervention for babies and young children with disabilities and developmental challenges, such as; Cerebral Palsy, Down syndrome, Autism Spectrum Disorder and those born very prematurely.

At the Centre, our belief is that every child, regardless of physical, intellectual, or social capacity has the right to be educated, to learn and grow. Those most at risk are children who face a different path, as a result of developmental delays and disabilities.

The journey for these families and their children is unplanned and often challenging. The Champion Centre team of specialists offer children the best possible start to their lives.

Every year we work with over 200 whānau and their tamariki, as part of our intensive therapy programme. We receive some government funding, but still have an approximate $700,000.00 shortfall to raise annually.

This equates to $7000 for each child attending the Centre, each year. That's our goal!

With your help we can support our whānau to realise every child's potential.

About us

We offer specialised programmes to infants and preschool children with complex developmental delays and disabilities. These programmes include Musical Play Therapy, Play Therapy, Technology Assisted Learning, and a 'Transition to School' programme.

Use of funds

For each $7000 raised one child's full early intervention programme is covered for an entire year.
