ReSport Charitable Trust: Breaking Barriers, Empowering Futures

ReSport Charitable Trust exists to remove barriers to participation in sport, recreation, and active learning. By reducing financial obstacles and providing equitable access to sports equipment, we empower individuals, whānau, and communities to engage in quality sporting experiences. Our mission extends beyond participation—we are committed to sustainability, ensuring that our work benefits both people and the environment.

Equity & Environmental Stewardship

We recognise that all resources come from the land, and we take responsibility for their lifecycle. By intercepting and repurposing sports textiles and equipment, we contribute to a circular economy that minimizes waste and rejuvenates the land. This sustainable approach preserves natural ecosystems while making sport more accessible for future generations.

Expanding Access & Strengthening Communities

To foster greater equity, we are increasing the number of pātaka in schools and community centers, ensuring sports gear is available to those who need it. Our kaupapa is rooted in the principles of distribution and circular economies, promoting stewardship and shared prosperity. Every donation, every exchange, and every moment of play strengthens our communities—creating a future where everyone, regardless of circumstance, has the opportunity to participate, grow, and thrive.
