Make Christmas Merry with Your Wrapping Skills! 🎄🎁

Christmas shopping can be a whirlwind, but your customer service and gift-wrapping skills can make a real difference in someone's day!

This role involves wrapping Christmas gifts at a booth in one of two shopping centres - Centre Place or Te Awa at The Base, raising funds for Volunteering Waikato - Te Ohu Tuuao o Waikato. People who have purchased gifts from these centres can come to our booths and get their presents wrapped for a koha. This is a fabulous and unique role that helps put a smile on the faces of us and our communities over the festive season!

This role lets you:

  • Be part of a fun, festive team
  • Meet other awesome volunteers
  • Be apart of the Christmas buzz
  • Master the art of gift wrapping

We’d love for you to commit to at least three shifts between December 9th - 24th, but you’re welcome to do more if you’re feeling festive!
