Charities: Information Hub

Kia ora,

Charities are in many ways the backbone of New Zealand, delivering services, providing resources and support that strengthens our communities. We enjoy supporting the great work that charities do, whether that be assisting with setting up a new charity, updating existing charities, supporting with commercial or employment matters of charities and much more. In this information hub we have compiled our guides and articles to keep the charities sector well-resourced and up to date on the latest developments.

We welcome your questions and there is an FAQ with dozens of questions and answers below.
