Call for Board nominations
The Volunteering New Zealand Board has opened the nomination process for two new members to fill our:
- Pasifika peoples board member role, and
- Māori board member role.
We warmly welcome nominations from across the motu, and would ideally be looking for candidates with community governance experience. For these important roles, nominees can be nominated by their community or by a VNZ member organisation. If you are attending our Volunteering Changemakers Hui, please talk to us about what the role entails.
Nominations can be made by Volunteering New Zealand Member organisations.
Should you wish to nominate yourself or someone else, nominees must submit:
- Volunteering New Zealand Board Nomination Form, and
- A one-page summary of the skills and experience that you would bring to the Board, and any other relevant information.
Nominations close at 12:00 pm, Monday 13 October 2025.
Should you wish to nominate yourself or someone else please submit your scanned board nomination form and one-page summary of your skills and experience by email to office@volunteeringnz.org.nz before 12:00 pm, Monday 13 October 2025.
If an election is required, Volunteering New Zealand member organisations will be invited to vote for their preferred nominees from 14 October. Results will be announced at our Annual General Meeting on Tuesday 4 November 2025.
