Giving Back to Our Community
Our Impact: Giving Back to Our Community
At ReLOVE ReCYCLE Kids Market, we’re more than just a market—we’re a community-driven initiative dedicated to making a real difference. While we help local parents declutter and earn cash by selling their pre-loved baby and kids’ items, our mission goes beyond that.
With every event, we find ways to give back, whether it’s supporting local charities, fundraising for important causes, or creating opportunities for families in need. Here’s how we’ve made an impact so far:
Supporting KidsCan NZ
Through our sausage sizzle fundraisers, we’ve raised vital funds to help provide food, clothing, and school supplies to children across Aotearoa who need it most.
Helping Young Athletes Chase Their Dreams
We’re proud to support a young Northland girl fundraising for her rugby team’s tour to Australia, ensuring she and her teammates can experience this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Fueling Community Giving with Coffee
With the power of coffee, we raised over $180, plus a cricket helmet, for the remarkable ReSport Charitable Trust, helping kids access sporting opportunities.
Making Dreams Come True
We had the privilege of gifting a McLaren Supercar cruise to a young Northland boy who underwent brain surgery. While in hospital, he built a LEGO McLaren—his favorite car. We turned his dream into reality by giving him a ride in the real thing!
Encouraging Sustainability & Community Sharing
Our free table allows families to pass on items they no longer need, ensuring they find a new home with those who do.
Northland Parent Business Spotlight
We love showcasing incredible local businesses run by Northland parents through our social media and private Facebook group, helping them reach new customers and grow their ventures.
Bringing Delicious Food to Our Market
We love showcasing amazing local food vendors at our events, offering marketgoers the best of Northland’s flavors. From freshly baked treats to mouth-watering meals, our markets are a place to shop, eat, and connect over delicious food.
