Volunteer for Poppy Day — one of New Zealand's oldest and most recognised street appeals. Sell poppies and collect donations in the lead-up to Anzac Day to support returned service personnel and their families.
Poppy Day is typically held on the Friday before Anzac Day weekend. Volunteers of all ages are welcome — it's a particularly popular activity for school groups and community organisations.
Shifts are flexible, usually 2-3 hours. The RSA provides everything you need: poppies, collection buckets, and a briefing.
Note: The exact 2026 date is yet to be confirmed. The date shown is an estimate based on previous years.
