About Asylum Safe House<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Safe Haven Housing Trust is a Registered Charitable Trust with donee status, governed by Kiwi people with decades of experience in this field and with international connections to support the protection of our clients.\u00a0Bryan\u00a0Johnson and his team of trustees manage the organisation, while our fantastic volunteers are practising traditional indigenous values of \u2018Manaakitanga’, \u2018Kotahitanga’, \u2018Awhi’ and \u2018Aroha’ (hospitality, solidarity, nurturing and love). Safe Haven Housing is a compassionate solution to provide support for reliable housing, food, health care, and security for asylum seekers while they focus on presenting their cases to Immigration Authorities.<\/em><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Donate to the Safe Haven Trust and help support an existing Safe House (Wharenui Ahuru Mowai) in Favona, Auckland, and three more houses planned for Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These houses will be used to provide housing for asylum seekers and refugees at the lowest possible cost for those who have fled to Aotearoa as a place of refuge,<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021, 605 people claimed asylum protection in NZ under the provisions of the United National Convention on the Status of Refugees enacted in 1960<\/strong>. In 2024, 2.365 people claimed asylum – a tidal wave of fleering asylum seekers has hit us. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The indigenous people of Aotearoa have core values that they practice for welcoming people;  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whanaungatanga \u2013 embracing people in to the family<\/em> <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manaakitanga \u2013 honouring and respecting people by providing generous hospitality <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These houses enable us to demonstrate these values.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The four dwellings will cost $3,900,000 plus purchase costs of $15,000. In addition, furnishing costs are estimated at $75,000. We have already purchased one house for $875,000 and have asylum seekers living safely in this house in Auckland. This purchase was made possible by the 1071 supporters we already have of which 335 gave a donation. We are now campaigning for funds on the streets of Auckland. Join us please!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you help us raise all the funds needed? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

No donation is too small. Donations from $20 to $10,000 are most welcome. We need as many people as possible to register donations so we can show large funders the wide level of support we have across our nation.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
