Volunteer in Wellington
Lend a hand at our Te Aro restaurant and help turn rescued kai into restaurant-quality meals for the Wellington community — no experience or long-term commitment needed.
Good kai, good company
Our Wellington restaurant on Dixon Street serves a three-course meal at shared tables several evenings a week, on a pay-what-you-can basis. Volunteers keep the whole place running, from the kitchen to the dining room.
We're right in the heart of Te Aro at 60 Dixon Street — a few minutes' walk from Courtenay Place and Cuba Street, and easy to reach by bus from across the city.
