Become a Big Buddy Volunteer Mentor in South Auckland!

Shane from Papakura

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!
