Volunteering Auckland

As National Volunteer Week 2026 comes to a close, we extend our heartfelt thanks to every volunteer across Aotearoa New Zealand.

This week has celebrated the extraordinary contribution volunteers make every day in communities large and small.

The impact of volunteering continues long after this week ends.

Let's keep recognising volunteers, supporting volunteering and encouraging more people to get involved.

Because volunteering strengthens communities all year round.

Thank you for making a difference.

Volunteers contribute in countless ways.

You might support older people, coach a sports team, plant native trees, serve on a committee, mentor young people, help at events, support the arts, care for animals or share professional skills.

There is no single way to volunteer.

There is a place for everyone.
