BECOME A CULTIVATE CHAMPION

Give regularly to Cultivate and help us work with more local youth, a weekly donation of $10 supports 3-hour urban farm experiences for students aged 5-18.

A weekly donation of $30 supports youth aged 16-25 to access our government-subsidised internship placements.

A weekly donation of $60 supports the employment of our specialist Youth Internship Coordinator.

SPONSOR A YOUTH INTERNSHIP

There are currently 4000+ young people, aged 16-25 in Christchurch who are not engaging in any form of education, employment or training (EET).

Without positive transitions into EET before the age of 25, they are at a high-risk of welfare dependency, mental illness, crime and causing harm to themselves and others. With the support of the community, we grow skills, provide meaningful work experience and employment opportunities for young people in an urban farming environment.

Talk to us about becoming a sponsor and

enable another young person to enter an

internship at Cultivate - $11,340 covers one 20-week internship.

HELP US FIND WHENUA (LAND) TO CALL HOME

Cultivate is seeking long-term leases within the city to provide more accessible sites for our interns, community and customers.

HELP US BUY TOOLS & EQUIPMENT

Make a one-off donation to help us reach the $28,000 per year we need to cover tools and equipment.

"Cultivate is a programme that is many things to many people. Some know it for the production of sweet tasting healthy organic vegetables; some as a place to get their own seedlings for their own gardens. I know it for the way it gives life to young people, helps provide them with new meaning for life and fills them with hope.”

OUR FUNDERS & SUPPORTERS

It takes a village to raise a child - Cultivate is no exception from this. We would not be where we are now without many people helping us out, chipping in, offering us pro bono work, financial support, advice and guidance.

We want to take the opportunity to thank everyone that has supported us throughout the years and who enable us to drive our mission as well as all the people and organisations that continue to support us.
