Get ready for National Volunteer Week 2026!
National Volunteer Week is Aotearoa New Zealand’s largest annual celebration of volunteering. Held from 14-20 June 2026, this week is an opportunity to recognise, celebrate, and appreciate the millions of volunteers who enrich Aotearoa New Zealand.
This year’s theme, ‘Your Year to Volunteer – Tōu tau ki te tūao‘, has been chosen to mark International Year of the Volunteer 2026. It both recognises those who are volunteering, and prompts others to start.
Volunteering New Zealand invite volunteer-involving organisations, community groups, schools, iwi, hapū, councils, businesses to join the celebrations and help amplify the collective impact of volunteering.
