Breast Cancer Foundation NZ's mission is to prevent New Zealanders developing and dying of breast cancer and to support patients. They do this through raising awareness for early detection; funding medical research, training and equipment; supporting patients with their helpline, counselling and rehabilitation; and advocating to the government for world-class treatments and care.

Taking place in February & March, the NZ House & Garden Tours help fundraising for this extensive work. Visitors can step inside the pages of their favourite magazine for a day of indulgence, visiting exquisite homes and gardens- while supporting a great cause!

They need wonderful volunteers for the Dunedin event in 2025! As a volunteer, you will:

  • be stationed either at the tour hub or at one of the houses
  • checking wristbands for visitors
  • assisting with parking
  • ensuring that the tour-goers are being respectful within the home

We hope volunteers will enjoy:

  • the buzz from being involved in this fabulous and unique event
  • being part of a great team supporting a great cause
  • making a contribution to the fundraising effort

To say thanks for volunteering:

  • you'll be able to spend your shift at one of the incredible locations on the tour
  • be given a 10% discount on your tour ticket (if purchased before December 31)
  • a goodie bag from the tour sponsors.
