Te Wiki Tūao ā-Motu – National Volunteer Week honours the collective energies and mana of volunteers in New Zealand. They grow our people, open minds, open hearts and create joy.

Running from June 18-24, National Volunteer Week is a great way to get out there and volunteer your time to a plethora of great causes.

The theme this year is ‘he wā pīataata – time to shine'.

Tūao Aotearoa Volunteering New Zealand – which leads the national event – has put together some resources for those interested in volunteering their time to a local cause, which can be found at: nationalvolunteerweek.nz/volunteer

Tūao Aotearoa Volunteering New Zealand is encouraging people to celebrate how our communities are stronger when we all work together. Post your volunteer celebrations and activities to social media with the hashtag #NVW2023 to share!
