Living Wage Auckland is running Round The Bays to raise money to support our growing movement!
Auckland
Living Wage Auckland is getting together to run Round the Bays and fundraise for our campaign!
Wearing our bright red Living Wage t-shirts, we'll be running or walking the 8.4 kms around Tāmaki Drive to raise for money to support our movement.
By making a donation you will join the growing Living Wage Movement in its mission to reduce poverty and inequality in our society.
Donating to our movement means our diverse network of supporters and volunteers can have more conversations with employers about stepping up to pay a Living Wage, we can organise more communities to call on councils, central government and other employers to introduce meaningful change for their workers and the low paid contracted staff for whom they are responsible.
Your donation enable us to grow into a sustainable broad-based community alliance and will make a real difference in reducing poverty in New Zealand.
Living Wage Movement Aotearoa NZ accepts no corporate or government donations because we must be independent to advocate against growing poverty in our communities. That means we depend on supporters like you to fund our activities and the costs of building relationships and training our leaders to be successful and effective advocates of a Living Wage.
The Living Wage Aotearoa New Zealand campaign brings together community and faith-based organisations and unions around a common goal of achieving a living wage as a necessary step in reducing inequality and poverty in our society.
A living wage is the income necessary to provide workers and their families with the basic necessities of life. A living wage will enable workers to live with dignity and to participate as active citizens in society.
We call upon the Government, employers and society as a whole to strive for a living wage for all households as a necessary and important step in the reduction of poverty in New Zealand.
The money raised will go to Living Wage Movement Aotearoa to promote the Living Wage, train community leaders to build a powerful voice in their organisation, and take action to transform the lives of workers in government and businesses across NZ.
