National Volunteer Week 16-22 June
This month we celebrate National Volunteer Week | Te Wiki Tūao ā-Motu (16-22 June), where we take time to acknowledge the contribution of all the amazing volunteers in communities around Aotearoa. This year the theme is Weaving the People Together – Whiria te Tangata.
As an organisation, we are fortunate to have over 2,000 fantastic individuals giving their time, skills and kindness to provide the CAB service – weaving together our collective contributions to make a big difference in people’s lives!
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
