State of Volunteering Reports

Wendy Richards from Volunteering New Plymouth

These bi-annual reports measure and explain volunteering. Volunteering NZ uses the information to:

• Provide sector leadership, strategy advice, and reliable statistics
• Advocate for volunteering to decision-makers and government
• Provide training and resources for the sector.

In 2022 the state of volunteering in Aotearoa was reported to be generally healthy, however there were opportunities for more support for volunteers and volunteering.

Please complete the Volunteering New Zealand survey to help with understanding of the current state of volunteering.

The surveys are anonymous, mostly multi-choice with some places to provide free text answers. They will be up until (estimated) 29 February – we encourage volunteers to do them over the holiday period.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
