Aviva has an array of volunteering opportunities for events, fundraising and admin support.
Support work is done entirely through our trained clinicians, so we are unable to offer volunteering opportunities for support work with clients.
Please follow Aviva’s Facebook page and join our Newsletter Mailing list below to keep up to date on upcoming campaigns like our Annual Street Appeal. For smaller volunteer opportunities like our biannual newsletter mailout, send an expression of interest to community@aviva.org.nz.
Find more information on our various volunteering opportunities below.
