Community Ambassador Pukekohe

Did you know that 35% of New Zealand teenagers are below the standard level of literacy? Struggling with reading and writing can deeply affect a person’s confidence, job prospects, finances, and wellbeing — but together, we can change that.

We’re looking for passionate Community Ambassadors to help spread the word about our free literacy services and connect people in need with life-changing support.

As a Community Ambassador, you will: ✅ Represent us in your local area ✅ Raise awareness of our free reading and writing help ✅ Build relationships with local libraries, schools, businesses, community centres, and more ✅ Distribute posters, flyers, and contact cards in places where people gather ✅ Attend local events, expos, volunteer fairs, or community meetings ✅ Advocate for those struggling with literacy and help them find the support they need

We believe that 1 in 10 Kiwis struggles with literacy — your mission is to help make sure they know we are here to help.

What we offer you: 🌟 Flexible, community-based volunteering that fits around your schedule 🌟 Initial training and a personalised local action plan 🌟 Ongoing support from our Community Coordinator 🌟 A network of Regional Ambassadors to connect and share ideas with 🌟 The chance to make a real difference in your community

We’ll ask you to check in with us once a month with a quick progress report so we can keep supporting you in your role.

If you’re passionate about your community, love meeting people, and want to help change lives, we’d love to hear from you!
