what we do

We can help you regain control - our mission is to advise, assist, educate and empower individuals and families in the Waiheke community around budgeting, debt management, and financial capability.

We are not a government organisation - our service is free and completely confidential. We do not judge or tell you how to live. We understand that financial pressure can cause family/relationship stress and other life problems.

Our advisers are qualified and experienced - we can help you refine your household budget, address debt, and teach you skills to increase your financial capability. We will advocate for you with government departments and support you in negotiations with creditors.

Funding and Support

The Waiheke Budgeting Service receives operational funding from the following sources:

Community Donations

We are incredibly grateful for the generosity of our Waiheke community. Donations from local individuals, families, businesses, and community groups help us provide food and practical support to people facing difficult times.

Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a real difference. Whether it's a few pantry staples,         fresh produce, a financial donation towards food, or even choosing to gift your Winter Energy Payment, your generosity helps ensure that no one in our community has to face hardship alone.

If you would like to support our food bank, we would be deeply grateful for your contribution. Together, we can continue to care for our community and provide timely support when it is needed most.

The Waiheke Budgeting Services Trust would like to sincerely thank all donors - as an NGO we are reliant on this support.
