Volunteering helps teens gain new skills necessary for the job market such as leadership, communication skills, dependability, time management, and decision making. We are gladly seeing more and more young volunteers getting their hands dirty and getting stuck in with us.

The benefits of volunteering can be enormous. Volunteering offers vital help to people in need, worthwhile causes, and the community, but the benefits can be even greater for you, the volunteer. The right match can help you to find friends, connect with the community, learn new skills, and
even advance your career. If you feel like you want to volunteer with us, please sign up

This is a great opportunity for families to share a day out in this special place and help the Te Whakakaha Trust in its work to restore the natural vegetation to the old quarry site. Larger podocarp trees will be planted under the existing canopy of smaller trees that have been put in the ground over the last 5 years.
