Meat the Need was established in 2020 with a mission to ensure no one in New Zealand goes hungry or unnourished. We connect the dots between farmers who want to donate some of what they produce and families in need.
We need Volunteer Champions! This exciting role offers the opportunity to build awareness, foster connections, and network with community organisations, farmers, and key rural industry groups. As a Volunteer Champion, you'll be acting as a brand ambassador to help spread the vision and goals of Meat the Need in your local community.
You'll share our passion about the opportunity for all New Zealanders to have access to our country's quality, nutritious protein and believe the primary sector can play an important role in helping to feed New Zealand families in need.
As a Volunteer Champion you will:
• actively pursue and support fundraising events/initiatives in your area.
• represent Meat the Need charity at industry events and other relevant gatherings for promotion opportunities.
• connect and network with local key stakeholders including sponsors, farmers and food banks.
We'll provide a full induction, detailed information, resources, and continuous support throughout your journey with Meat the Need.
There are no specified time commitments for this role, however we estimate that Volunteer Champions may be spending up to 15 hours per quarter. We appreciate your time and commitment and recognise certain times of the year can be busier than others. Please advise if there are specific times that you would not be able to commit to.
