Cure Kids

Cure Kids (previously Child Health Research Foundation) was established over 35 years ago to address the lack of research into life-threatening childhood illnesses in New Zealand.

Since then, we have invested over $27million in vital medical research. This research has helped save countless young lives and has improved the quality of life for children across the country.
Today, we are more committed than ever to help find answers to the many cruel, life-threatening illnesses that devastate the lives of young children and their families.
Our successes include:

  • Asthma
  • Breakthroughs into the causes of childhood leukaemia
  • Childhood Diabetes
  • Childhood Heart Conditions
  • Internationally adopted treatment for cystic fibrosis
  • Life-saving cot death preventative strategies
  • Liver Disease
  • Molecular Genetics
  • Paediatric Cancer
  • Placental cord Blood Banking
  • Respiratory Illnesses
  • Rheumatic Fever
  • Spina Bifida
  • Treatment for hole in the heart blue babies
  • World-first breakthroughs into genetic research

Your generous donation to Cure Kids will go towards funding vital medical research that will improve the lives of Kiwi children facing life-threatening illnesses. We fund innovative, results-driven research that brings hope to children and families throughout New Zealand. Whether it be research to develop a new diagnostic test or a national screening programme, or research to bring a new medical treatment to the market, our ultimate goal is ALWAYS to find a cure. A donation from Sovereign Sunshine will be put towards our ongoing research.
 
"A reliable, ongoing source of funding for New Zealand researchers.  With the backing of Cure Kids and their fundraising initiatives my team and I can concentrate on finding solutions, confident that funding will be in place.  I believe this has been largely responsible for our successes to date."  Professor Stephen Robertson, Cure Kids Chair of Child Health Research, University of Otago
