Fund Our Whānau
Will you become a Common Unity Champion this Christmas?
At Common Unity, it truly takes a village. The heart of our village is our whānau - the beautiful people who care for our gardens, harvest vegetables, share their skills, balance the books, cook delicious meals, make the coffee, and keep the lights on.
Funds raised will go to support our people - what we call ‘celery ops.’ (We can’t resist a gardening pun around here!) We reckon it’s a perfect summary. Celery may not be the fanciest vegetable, but it’s the foundation of a lot of tasty meals. And so it goes for our people - it’s not too difficult to find funding for shiny new projects, but it’s harder to fund the people who make those things happen between the heartwarming photo ops.
So we’re turning to you, our community, to help us make sure we can keep our whānau going all year round.

Together, we grow.

Note: In order to provide our supporters with an option to give regularly, we are using a platform called Custom Donations. They support non-profits by only charging a 1.5% fee on donations. You can choose to cover this cost in your donation so your full donation goes to Common Unity, or you can opt out and Common Unity will pay this fee.
