The Vision: Healthy marriages create healthy families, and healthy families build a thriving New Zealand. But right now, couples are navigating unprecedented pressures, often feeling isolated and unsure of where to find help.

The Strategy: Building the “Table” From September 13–19, we are relaunching the newly rebranded National Marriage Week NZ (MWNZ). Building on over a decade of impact, we are not just running an event; we are building a collaborative platform. Alongside partners like Alpha NZ, Focus on the Family, NZ Christian Network, and a dedicated network of 300+ local pastors, we are mobilising a nationwide movement to champion and support marriages.

The Immediate Milestone: The National Relationship Survey Before MWNZ kicks off, we are currently driving the largest relationship data-gathering initiative in the country. Our goal is to survey 10,000 Kiwis by August 2026. This vital data will be unveiled during Marriage Week, exposing the real state of relationships in Aotearoa, identifying barriers to help, and equipping churches and organisations to provide targeted, effective support.

Your Impact/What Your Partnership Funds: By financially partnering with the Marriage Week Initiative today, you are directly investing in the relational health of our nation. Your gift allows us to:

• Equip the Frontlines: Provide 300+ pastors and community leaders with frictionless “Partner Toolkits” (surveys, digital assets, and curriculum) to support couples in their local communities.
• Fuel the Data Drive: Fund the digital infrastructure and marketing required to reach our critical goal of 10,000 survey responses before our strict August deadline.
• Launch the Rebrand: Subsidise the nationwide awareness campaign that destigmatises relationship struggles and points couples toward life-changing resources.

The Ask: We are on a tight timeline to secure funding before the massive August survey push. Will you partner with us to invest in the legacy and health of New Zealand marriages?
