Volunteer with us
“How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.”
The Holocaust Centre of New Zealand relies on the passion, talent, and dedication of our volunteers. Every week, volunteers play a vital role in keeping our history alive, welcoming visitors, and helping us educate the public. By giving your time, you become an active defender of memory, helping us build a more empathetic and inclusive Aotearoa New Zealand.
Find your place: Who we are looking for
We welcome volunteers from all walks of life, Jewish or non-Jewish. Whether you have a few hours to spare on a Sunday, contribute to a one-off project, or possess professional skills to share, you fit into one of our core community groups:
Heritage and community keepers: Individuals with personal or family connections to the Holocaust who want to ensure these critical stories are preserved and respected.
History and archival enthusiasts: Researchers, teachers, or students who possess a deep interest in historical truth and want to work directly with our collections.
Social justice advocates: People passionate about human rights who want to counter modern discrimination, bias, and antisemitism.
Retirees and social seekers: Seniors looking for a regular, meaningful social routine where they can apply decades of life experience to a vital cause.
Career builders and students: Corporate workers or students looking to donate high-impact professional skills (like marketing, IT, or legal advice) to a non-profit, whilst helping build their CVs.
