Questions?

We do not offer one off opportunities at this time for individuals unless joining us within a corporate group (see below for more info on this).

We welcome volunteers who can commit to regular, ongoing support. This helps you understand our systems and processes while building and strengthening relationships with staff and whānau over time.

Volunteers must be aged 18 years or over. We do allow volunteers 16 and over with Donation Sorting at our retail stores- please email [email protected] for details.

If you’d like to help at Christmas — one of our busiest and most special times of the year — please email [email protected] to register your interest.
