The Migrant Action Trust empowers migrants and former refugees through employment-readiness workshops, community driving programs, and various community-building projects. As we celebrate our 20th anniversary of growing confident communities in Tamaki Makarau, we cordially invite you to celebrate with us.
To mark this milestone, we are calling on you to partner with us in supporting 20 more free English classes and one-on-one job search coaching sessions for newly settled migrants. We also aim to empower 20 more former refugees, particularly solo mothers, through culturally appropriate and trauma-sensitive driving lessons that will grant them the gift of independence.
Your support will help the Migrant Action Trust enhance its capacity to support new settlers by increasing their employability, boosting their confidence, mobility to services, reducing isolation, and improving the overall well-being of the whole whanau.
We thank you for investing in growing confident and successful communities by making a donation today. Please follow the link below to donate.

Smoke in Mt Wellington
Smoke has been seen coming from the crater of the Auckland maunga Mt Wellington.
Images of the smoke began appearing on social media on Friday afternoon.
Around 1.45pm, Fire and Emergency (Fenz) shift manager Josh Pennefather told the NZ Herald a crew was fighting a fire of about 60 square metres in size.
”It’s spreading up hill … [but] there’s no property at risk at this stage,” Pennefather said.
Six fire trucks were in attendance working to contain a grass fire that's spreading up the maunga.
A helicopter was on its way to assist firefighting efforts, he added.
At 2pm, Pennefather shared that the fire was contained and they were working to extinguish it, including “keeping an eye on a whole bunch of hot spots“.
