Get involved

We are always looking for people to help make a difference. Whether you want to change the world or simply tell your friends and whanau about an event or campaign, we would love to hear from you.

Send us photos

We are always on the lookout for photos that we can use to promote asthma activities and our work. Photos that show people with respiratory illness engaging in an activity, or using their medication are helpful. Bright colours and simple scenes are most effective. Please email digital images to info@asthmafoundation.org.nz

COPD support

We need people to help run support groups for people with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). If there is already a group in your town, they would probably love your assistance. If there is not an existing group, then why not start one? The Foundation runs a new programme called COPD Assist to help new groups get started and to support existing groups. Click here to read a brochure about the initiative, phone us on (04) 499 4592 or email us at info@asthmafoundation.org.nz

Storytellers and media stars

Do you or does your child have a story about respiratory illness that the world should know about? We are looking for people who are willing to share their experiences. In the build up to a big event, we often get called by a reporter wanting to talk to someone with asthma or COPD. If you can help, we would love to add your to our database. Please email  info@asthmafoundation.org.nz
