Blanket Donation Urgent request
Can you help by donating 100% wool blankets (especially vintage ones ) to be repurposed into cot blankets for vulnerable babies.
The Nest Collective, Christchurch, is a registered charity that works alongside social workers and other community partners to provide free packs of baby essentials for whānau in need.
Our vision is that all New Zealand babies are given a great start in life to enable them to flourish.
We give packs of new, pre-loved, handcrafted and repurposed essentials including clothing, toys, nappies, bedding, books and more.
Our items are sourced through donations (both physical and financial) and provided to families via social workers, kaiāwhina, midwives, nurses and other local community partners.
