Sue Barker: Charity Lawyer on StarJam's urgent appeal as it faces closure

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Tuesdays

A grim picture is being painted of the state of the country's charities. It follows an urgent financial appeal from disability youth charity StarJam, which is facing closure after more than 20 years. Charity lawyer Sue Barker told Mike Hosking that the situation for similar organisations is dire during the cost of living crisis. She says with more people are reaching out to charities for support, volunteer pressures, and declining revenue streams, it is the perfect storm. Barker says it is not a case of New Zealand having too many charities, as they are still needed. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
