Community Involvement
Volunteersin our community
In Raglan, volunteering isn’t just a task; it’s a way of life woven into the fabric of daily existence. From beach clean-ups to the bustling community events, these dedicated individuals are the heart and soul of what makes Raglan more than just a place—it’s a home.

Volunteer Groups in Whāingaroa
"Volunteering Waikato are a valuable recruitment agency for the Whaingaroa Raglan Destination Management Organisation. Many of our Raglan iHUB volunteers have contacted us via the Volunteering Waikato website as referrals and also through other initatives such as their school student programme. The website platform is super user friendly, and support is always available from the Volunteering Waikato team when needed. Thanks Volunteering Waikato for all that you do!"
Jacqueline Anderson, Whaingaroa Raglan Destination Management Organisation (WRDMO)
