Welcome to Volunteering NZ Blogspot


Volunteer Awareness Week

Volunteer Awareness Week (VAW) is a great opportunity to highlight volunteering and the wide range of volunteering roles available within the community. It also encourages first-timers to give volunteering a go. This year, VAW will be held from Sunday 15 to Saturday 21 June 2008.

Some organisations may not begin their activities until later in the week, eg on Monday 16 June. However, they should still promote the week as 15-21 June to ensure a consistent message in the promotion of this most important event for volunteering in New Zealand.

VNZ will be compiling a list of activities that will be held by local volunteer centres and our members for the event. We will upload this list closer to the awareness week.
