We are proud to support a wide range of charities, not-for-profits and social enterprises working to improve outcomes for the people and communities of Aotearoa New Zealand.
Pro bono is a core part of who we are as lawyers in Aotearoa. It reflects our professional obligations and our connection to the communities we live and work in. We have a long history of using our skills and resources to make a positive and lasting difference.
In our 2026 edition of the Pro Bono Overview – Assisting our communities in Aotearoa New Zealand, we share the recent work of some of the country's most forward-thinking charitable and not-for-profit organisations, including:
- Access to essential healthcare and research – Wellington Charity Hospital Trust and Cure Kids.
- Investing in our tamariki and rangatahi – Before 16, Te Whāngai Trust and Graeme Dingle Foundation.
- Assisting our communities - Māngere Community Law Centre, Community Law Wellington & Hutt Valley, Aotearoa Disability Law and Te Ara Ture.
- Uplifting Rainbow communities - Wellington Pride Parade Trust and RainbowYOUTH.
- Building biodiversity - Protect Rakiura Trust, Zealandia and Waitaki Whitestone Geopark Trust.
- Aiding humanitarian efforts - Kiwi K.A.R.E. Ukraine and Mahi for Ukraine.
- Advocating for the Arts - Te Ahurei Toi o Tāmaki Auckland Arts Festival, Te Uru Waitākere Contemporary Gallery, Bridget Williams Books and The Arts Foundation Te Tumu Toi.
These are some of the key organisations we work with do inspiring work every day to help some of Aotearoa's most vulnerable communities and groups that might otherwise have the means to obtain quality legal advice. It is a pleasure to work alongside them and many others to assist in making positive change in Aotearoa.
