Over the past 24 years, Kids for Kids and World Vision have partnered together engaging Kiwi kids and their families with international poverty issues. During this time 200,000 Kiwi kids have sung their hearts out, and over 5,000 children have been sponsored through these amazing events.
 
This year, World Vision and Kids for Kids are parting ways. This was a mutual decision to allow each organisation to focus on doing the very best they can in the New Zealand education space.

World Vision continue to be an education partner within New Zealand schools through the 40 Hour Famine, student leadership programmes and global education resources. Kids for Kids will keep putting on their amazing events, with a focus on encouraging young people into the performing arts and continue to instill a love of music in the hearts of thousands of Kiwi Kids. 

Thank you for being part of this incredible journey!
