Bequests
The support IHC receives through bequests and other donations plays a major role in the work that IHC does for people with intellectual disabilities in New Zealand.
What does your money help with?
IHC uses your generous donations to help people with intellectual disabilities through:
- Our volunteering programmes
- Advocacy support
- IHC Library and Information Centre which provides free books and information to families
- IHC Associations - these are local associations in your area.
What are IHC’s administrative costs?
In 2015/16 for every dollar donated to IHC:
- 66 cents went directly to improving the quality of life of people with intellectual disabilities, advocating for and supporting them to be included in their communities.
- 20 cents was invested in fundraising and communications activity around New Zealand to benefit the people we support.
- 14 cents was spent on IHC’s administration and management of our fundraising programmes.
