CAB Christchurch has over 100 Volunteers currently giving up their valuable time to make a difference for others.

Sunday 17 to Saturday 23 June 2018 is NZ National Volunteer Week, which celebrates the 1.2 million Kiwis who volunteer in our communities every year. The theme for this year is "Volunteers, The Heart of our Community – By many, the work will be completed, Mā tini, mā mano, ka rapa te whai", which captures the essence of the volunteering spirit and the essential link between volunteers and the communities who benefit from their generosity.

Scott Miller, Chief Executive of Volunteering NZ says: “Communities big and small, throughout the country rely on the goodwill and passion that Kiwis have for their communities”. The theme for National Volunteer Week 2018 highlights the human side of volunteering, showing people not only is volunteering good, it’s good for you and your community.

Quote: 'When you volunteer, you vote every day for the kind of society you want to live in' - Marjorie Moore.

Thank you to all the CAB Christchurch volunteers for being the heart of our community.
