Storytime Foundation - Everyday moments of magic
Storytime Foundation is a New Zealand based charitable trust with a vision of New Zealand children thriving in supportive home environments. We are committed to assisting the wellbeing of children and their families by providing resources to families to:

• Stimulate parent/child relationships by promoting the value of reading to children and babies

• Give children, who may not have the opportunity, access to books

About Storytime Foundation

Storytime Foundation is expanding and meeting the needs of families across Auckland. We have now delivered over 45,000 books to families with new born children in Auckland.

In conjunction with funding organisations and our partners Plunket, ADHB, Auckland Libraries, and Rotary Club of Auckland, we are making a real contribution to the awareness of the value of reading to children.


Storytime Foundation currently offers the Storytime Foundation programme throughout Auckland City. We are seeking funding to extend the programme out to other areas commencing with a pilot programme in Whangarei. Penguin group and other publishers are supporting Storytime Foundation by providing us generous discounts and a number of funders are making it possible for us to purchase the books.
