Community led conservation – Join our team

Four women standing outdoors in front of greenery, all wearing matching teal T-shirts with a Maori-inspired design and the words "WHAKATANE KIWI TRUST" printed on them.
A man standing outdoors in a grassy area, with a black dog sitting beside him, both near dense greenery. The man is wearing dark shorts, a camouflage shirt, and rubber boots. The dog has a shiny coat and a chain collar, looking attentively to the side.

Our supporters and volunteers are what make this project a success. Each year our volunteers contribute over 6000 hours of mahi to support our vision of kiwi thriving and prospering in the Whakatane district. 

We have plenty of volunteer opportunities to suit various interests and schedules including night walks, educational programmes, trapping, kiwi aversion, camera monitoring, kiwi tracking and assistance at events/fundraising activities.
