Family First NZ in Court to Fight Deregistration
Family First NZ in Court to Fight Deregistration
Family First NZ will be in the Wellington High Court on Monday (22nd) from 10am to appeal against attempts by the Charities Registration Board to deregister them, with Family First’s traditional view of marriage being one of the key reasons for the deregistration.
Family First is a non-profit organisation which receives no government funding, is funded purely by donations and gifts from New Zealand families, and relies heavily on volunteer time and advice. It has led a number of highly public campaigns against controversial legislation including the anti-smacking law and the same-sex marriage law. They have received significant public support as a result of their campaigns.
Family First will fight any attempts to deregister it.
