Join the hikoi to end child poverty in New Zealand Britomart to Aotea Square Saturday 6 Sept * 11am * Auckland We want all our beautiful children to reach their potential – but sadly one in four children don’t get a fair go in New Zealand. Child Poverty Action Group is calling on people and organisations across Auckland to join a march from Britomart to Aotea Square to demand action on child poverty in Aotearoa. We’ve invited politicians from across the political spectrum to attend the march. We’re looking for a firm indication from political leaders that they are committed to the steps needed to give all children a fair go so they can reach their potential. We aim for this to be a really colourful, child-friendly event – we’d love to bring people together from all sections in our society to show the nation how much we care about our children and their well-being. The main thing now is to get as many people along as possible and we could really use your help! Spread the word about the Hikoi in your newsletters or emails to supporters (we’ve included some newsletter blurbs below) admin if you’d like to order printed copies.
