New Zealand Today Our experience of growing up is not the reality for many Kiwi kids

1 in 3 Kiwi kids are living in poverty, 148,000 in material hardship

Going without things we take for granted - a warm home, own bed, a decent pair of shoes, the opportunity to participate in sports Significant barrier to a child’s future personal success• Lower paid employment or unemployment• Criminal offending• Mental health problems• Welfare dependency

Variety’s Response Recognition of the complex, unique nature of each child’s circumstances

Need for flexible support, tailored to each child’s individuals needs

Variety’s Kiwi Kid Sponsorship Programme fills this gap

Currently helps 2,700 children, providing the essentials each child would otherwise go without – basic clothing, shoes, school stationery, warm bedding, school uniform, medicine, or school camp Support extends beyond the physical, to psychological including self-esteem, confidence, and being able to fit in with their peers.

Our Challenge – 10,000 children High levels of child poverty. Growing waiting list. Big ambition.

Reached staffing and infrastructure capacity

Variety needed a technology solution to support growth and resolve:•Labourious manual processes•Paper-based applications and supporting documents•Multiple staff handling requirements (duplication)•Stand-alone systems with no integration Needed a solution which was cost effective, robust, integrated –

meeting future needs without scaling up staff or overhead costs.
