Collect for the Annual Street Appeal
The Aviva Street Appeal is on Friday 22 and Saturday 23 May.
Our Annual Street Appeal is Aviva’s biggest fundraising event of the year, but it simply wouldn’t be possible without the support of people like you. Every coin dropped in a bucket offers hope, support and safety for someone experiencing violence.
What's involved?
- Choose a time slot that suits you
- Pick up your collection bucket and vest from Aviva
- Collect for 1-2 hours at your designated location
- Return your bucket and donations to Aviva to be part of caring community making a real impact
For more information on collecting, see our Collector FAQs sheet [PDF, 228 KB].

Support work is done entirely through our trained clinicians. We are unable to offer volunteering opportunities for work with clients.
We occasionally require support with one-off administrative tasks such as:

- bucket stuffing leading up to our Annual Street Appeal (late April/early May)
- picking up and sorting in-kind donations
If you are interested in volunteering with administrative tasks, please send an send an expression of interest to ✉community@aviva.org.nz.
