Different ways to contribute to supporting CCI Support
Individual Donors
Every day across Aotearoa, people quietly disappear from workplaces, classrooms, sports teams, and community life due to complex chronic and post‑viral illness. They are the colleague who once sat beside you in a meeting, the friend who stopped replying because they’re too unwell, the family member who now spends most of their time housebound or bedbound.
At CCI Support, we walk alongside these individuals and their whānau through some of the most overwhelming moments of their lives. We meet people in crisis, help them navigate diagnosis, manage debilitating symptoms, rebuild identity, and find a way forward when life has changed beyond recognition.
Your donation helps ensure they are not left to face this alone.
Every donation — large or small — directly protects services that people rely on to survive, adapt, and rebuild their lives.
You can donate directly through our website, or through MyGivingCircle, where your donation also counts as a vote to help us secure additional grants.
CCI Support is an approved charitable organisation with Inland Revenue. Any donation of $5 or more qualifies for a 33% tax rebate.
Free Wills
Complex Chronic Illness Support Incorporated has joined up with ‘Gathered Here’ to provide free wills.
Sadly, traditional will-writing can cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars which makes it difficult for many people to write a will or plan to support the causes they care about.
So, we’ve partnered with Gathered Here, to offer our supporters access to a FREE online will. It is as easy as possible for people to write a FREE will and if they want to, include a gift to charity too (please choose us HAHA).
Start your FREE Will by clicking HERE
PROS
- It’s free
- You can update it anytime for free
- It takes around 10 minutes to write
- It’s 100% legal, just make sure you get it signed properly.
- All instructions are included.
- You can add a legacy gift to CCI Support if you wish.
CONS
- Not great for complicated wills with child custody arrangements, multiple properties etc.
- It’s not stored with a Lawyer – so you will need to let your family know you have one and when the time comes, your appointed executor will need to action it.
Wellness Sponsors
Perfect for businesses wanting to show their corporate responsibility and support their local area.
Your business will be seen as an organisation with a conscience, who is willing to use profit for good, to help those living with complex chronic illnesses.
Your support will help us ensure that no one faces the challenges of chronic illness alone and that everyone receives the care and assistance they deserve. Together, we can build a stronger, more supportive community for individuals and families affected by chronic illnesses.
Matched Donors
Matched donors pledge an amount — like $1,000, $5,000, or $10,000 — and that pledge is used to match public donations dollar‑for‑dollar. It’s one of the most powerful ways to support people living with chronic illness, because your generosity inspires others to give and instantly doubles the impact.
We’re ready to launch short, high‑impact matched‑giving campaigns in the next two weeks — and we need matched donors to help us move quickly. Your support now will unlock immediate impact and help protect the services our community relies on.
We appreciate your support
If you have any queries about donating, the work we do, or would like to get more involved – we’d love to hear from you.
