Irish Mammies in NZ
Estimated Time: 10 - 15 Hours Over 8 - 12 Weeks
Irish Mammies in NZ are a group of over 700 Irish born women who have immigrated to NZ chasing the dream but we still need a bit of support from time to time. We help each other, support the bad times, celebrate the good and basically become a self made family with others who have experienced lives similar to our own. It's now time to make our group into a more formal organisation structure and we need your help. We think we want to be a not-for-profit community organisation with some type of ability to earn money to sustain the organisation in the future. So if you are a legend (which by volunteering you already are) who has experience with charity registration, who could guide us through the process, help us design/prepare trust deed, set of rules etc please get in touch.

What we Do
We are a group of first generation Irish immigrants living in New Zealand. Some of us are mothers, some of us are soon to be mothers or still just thinking about it, we are the organisers, supporters and the bringers of Craic to fellow NZ Irish who may need a touch of home to make it seem not so far away. We don’t take ourselves too seriously, taking the hand out of ourselves and each other. We recognise that everyone has their views and they may be different to our own.
What we all have in common is that we were born in Ireland, and we now live permanently in NZ with our kids or the prospect of future little’uns
