Community Builders NZ (CBNZ) is a registered charitable trust dedicated to empowering residents from New Zealand’s most disadvantaged communities. Our mission is to build the capacity and capability of individuals, enabling them to become local change-makers. We focus on regions such as South Auckland, the Far North, and the Waikato, fostering leadership and resilience in areas that need it most.
Our Mission: Empowering Local Change-Makers
We aim to inspire residents to recognize their potential to drive positive change within their communities. By addressing personal challenges and barriers, we work together to:
- Alleviate disadvantage through targeted initiatives.
- Develop thriving communities where individuals can reach their full potential.
Partnership and Support
CBNZ partners with residents to tackle obstacles, providing resources and support to overcome systemic challenges. Our approach helps individuals not only improve their own lives but also contribute meaningfully to their communities’ growth and well-being.
