Help us keep Kiwis warm this Winter

Habitat for Humanity Northern Region operates across Tai Tokerau and Tāmaki Makaurau,
from Cape Reinga to the Bombay’s. We build and manage affordable housing, deliver

All of our work is delivered in partnership, and focused on building strength,
stability and independence through the provision of decent shelter.

Advocacy

We continue to advocate about the importance of best practice curtains through our curtain advocacy group, Curtain Call. Our collective vision is that every home in New Zealand has best practice window coverings to support greater heat retention, increased energy efficiency and healthier outcomes for whānau.
