How long does it take to process an application for a Koru Care trip?
I'm not sure if my child will qualify for a Koru Care trip. I don't want to get our hopes up unless we have a good chance. What can I do?
Can I become a volunteer?
Koru Care always welcomes volunteer helpers. Assistance is often required on the Christmas cruise, at auctions and for collecting donations at Koru Care events. Phone us or e-mail us for more information about becoming a volunteer.
 
What are the advantages of becoming a Koru Care sponsor?
Koru Care sponsors get the benefit of publicity at Koru Care events, in our newsletters and in media coverage of Koru Care trips. All donations are tax deductible. Apart from business advantages, you get the warm feeling of knowing that you're helping children who really need something to look forward to.
 
Can I donate goods to Koru Care?
You certainly can! We have a charity auction every year, so donations of products or services are always welcome. Please contact us by phone or email if you'd like to make a donation.
 
How long does it take to process an application for a Koru Care trip?
Every trip we organise has a cut off date. To ensure we receive your application in time, please call and ask what the cut off dates are.
Sometimes applications get stalled because families are waiting for their GP or specialist to complete some of the details. We recommend you remind your doctor that applications need to be completed promptly.
 
I'm not sure if my child will qualify for a Koru Care trip. I don't want to get our hopes up unless we have a good chance. What can I do?
Call a member of the Koru Care Committee and tell us about your personal circumstances. Over the phone, we can give you a good idea of whether your child is likely to fit our criteria.
