Become a Big Buddy Volunteer Mentor in South Auckland!

Hey everyone,

I’ve been volunteering at Big Buddy for more than 5 years. Big Buddy is a charity that matches good men with a bit of time to spare with boys ages 7-14 who don’t have a father or father figure in their lives. It’s truly been a rewarding experience I wouldn’t have swapped … View more
Hey everyone,

I’ve been volunteering at Big Buddy for more than 5 years. Big Buddy is a charity that matches good men with a bit of time to spare with boys ages 7-14 who don’t have a father or father figure in their lives. It’s truly been a rewarding experience I wouldn’t have swapped for anything.

In November 2022 I joined the team as the new mentoring manager for South and East Auckland. We have a ton of young boys on our waiting list, particularly in South Auckland, and I’m keen to spread the word as I know we have many amazing people in our communities. We really struggle for male volunteers in South Auckland, and I know for sure there are plenty out there!

If you think this may be something you could be interested in, please follow the link below or share with someone who you think would make a great Big Buddy!

Have you recently observed your broadband expenses creeping up?

According to our recent Neighbourly poll, a staggering 80% of respondents have remained loyal to the same broadband provider for over 5 years, and within that group, a whopping 80% have been with their provider for more than 10 years!

Staying loyal could be costing you money! By switching providers, you could save over $300 a year.

If you're currently under contract, here's a tip: set a reminder for the 11th month to compare your options. This way, you won't get automatically rolled onto higher pricing. It's your chance to keep more money in your pocket!

Don't let rising costs get the best of you. Explore your options and save big - check out Broadband Compare and Power Compare to compare different plans and providers!
