What volunteers do

Volunteering in NZ

AFS volunteers are our lifeblood. They have many talents and help us in all sorts of ways, such as:

• supporting a local student and/or their host family
• interviewing potential AFS students and/or host families
• representing AFS at exhibitions or community events
• building AFS relationships with schools
• co-ordinating of AFS chapter activities

We provide lots of helpful resources for volunteers and have a great local network to help you with your work.

You can also help in other ways:

• Sponsor our outreach activities for students and families.
• Got some free wall space? Use it for AFS posters and brochures to promote the AFS message within your business or sport/interest group.
• Got some free office space? This could be ideal for AFS meetings and events.
