Prostate Cancer Foundation NZ

Written By Kim Manunui

Breaking barriers, saving lives.

Prostate Cancer Foundation NZ (PCFNZ) exists to make sure no one has to face prostate cancer alone, and that they can navigate their journey with knowledge and respect.

1 in 8 Kiwi men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime — it’s the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second highest cause of cancer death for men in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Behind every diagnosis is a person, a family, a story. We’re here to walk alongside them, offering support, raising awareness, funding research for a better future, and driving change to improve outcomes and improve quality of life for those impacted by prostate cancer.

PCFNZ provides vital support, education and information to individuals and their families, as well as reducing the impact of prostate cancer through raising awareness, funding NZ-based research and advocating for improved standards of care.

With no government funding, your donation helps us provide a wide range of remote and in-person services, such as a nurse-led toll-free information service, 24/7 Counselling, a national peer-support programme, and the tailored exercise programmes Prost-FIT and Prostate Cancer Patient Empowerment Programme.

Mike Lane is one of the many men your donation supports:
“Hearing the words ‘you have prostate cancer’ really hit hard — I’d always looked after my health. But prostate cancer doesn’t discriminate. What got me through was the support from my local prostate cancer support group and Prost-FIT classes. The camaraderie and encouragement were unreal, so much so I’m now giving back — and it’s all only possible because of supporters like you.”

By supporting Prostate Cancer Foundation NZ you are helping fund the care, connection, and hope men like Mike rely on, and create a better prostate cancer care landscape for future generations.

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
