What’s new from VNZ

Do you volunteer?

VNZ needs your feedback! VNZ is seeking feedback from people who engage in volunteering, social action and Mahi Aroha, or who in some way give their time in the communities. We hope to gain a better understanding of the current state of volunteering in New Zealand. Our State of Volunteering report on our findings will be published in 2020.
