HELP US HELP MIGRANTS AND FORMER REFUGEES ON THE ROAD TO SUCCESS
Give a little to help us help migrants and former refugees be road-ready and job-ready. Click here to DONATE givealittle.co.nz......
Migrant Action Trust (MAT) helps migrants and former refugees from arrival to employment and integration in New Zealand. We help Aotearoa’s newest residents to secure meaningful employment and overcome the barriers to getting a driver licence.
An NZ drivers licence opens up job opportunities for them and gives a sense of belonging, while building their independence and improving well-being for the whole whānau.
The NZTA recommends 120 hours of driving for learners to be test-ready. But this is a huge challenge for former refugees who have no access to a practice car, no driving coach/supervisor and no funds to pay for lessons with a qualified driving instructor. All on top of language and literacy barriers!
We need funds to put towards the cost of driving lessons and practical driving tests for new settlers especially refugees from Afghanistan, single mothers applying for jobs and mothers with special needs children.
Each month we aim to help 10 new settlers to pass their driving tests - that's 10 families each month gaining independence, job opportunities and improving their well-being in Aotearoa.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
