Other ways to help
Every young person deserves a space to belong. At Zeal, we’re building those spaces — through creativity, connection, and care. Whether you donate, spread the word, give in-kind resources, or volunteer your time, your support fuels life-changing impact.
Join us in backing the next generation — because when young people thrive, our whole community does too.
Give food
Kai creates connection. Enhance our impact and attract more rangatahi to our safe spaces. Kai is an essential part of our drop-in spaces, mentoring sessions and programmes in schools.
All Zeal centres
Give laptops
Our West Auckland and Hamilton teams run a laptop refurbishment programme where every graduate gets a free laptop.
We’ll erase your data securely, and our young refurbishers do the rest!

Hire our spaces
We have hireable auditoriums, event spaces, recording studios, rehearsal rooms and meeting spaces in 4 of our 5 locations.
Get discounts if you’re a youth/community Kaupapa or want to use our spaces regularly. All proceeds go to making more safe spaces for rangatahi.
Get your workplace involved
Do you have payroll giving? Do you have a social event we could be the beneficiary of like a golf or whānau day? Or would you like to do a volunteer day? Partner with Zeal today!

Give Clothes
Some of our centres run free community closets to give rangatahi access to affirming and much-needed clothing. The difference a pair of shoes can make is huge!

Offer your skills
Are you a tradie, designer, artist, printer, auditor, or event helper? Pro bono time or a few spare hours can go a long way—support a campaign, beautify a space, or help us reach more rangatahi online.
