Did you know...
Did you know that about half of Aotearoa volunteers in some way?
We often think of volunteering in a very formal way, including only the types of volunteering that involve signing up with a charitable organisation. However, when the definition of volunteering is expanded to include informal volunteering as well, and including short-term and one-off volunteering, rates of participation are significantly higher!
According to @volunteeringnz, of those aged 15 years or older, 49.8% have engaged in some sort of formal and/or informal volunteer work in the last month!
