The Auckland City Mission has supported people in need from all walks of life for 100 years and is one of the city’s most influential social service providers. None of their clients’ stories are the same and the people who come to the Mission for help come for many different reasons.
Some are isolated elderly, others are rough sleepers or people living in cars and inappropriate housing. Others are battling addictions, living with mental health issues, or struggling to feed their families over a period of unexpected crisis.
Younity is proud to be a supporter of the Auckland City Mission donating time and money to help those less fortunate in our community.
The Wellington City Mission is a charitable trust affiliated to the Anglican Church. They have been helping those most in need in the Wellington region for 116 years and are open to anyone who needs assistance, regardless of their religious belief, age, ethnicity or social background!

Duffy Books in Homes is a charity that Younity actively supports. Duffy have been changing lives for the last 25 years, providing over 12 million books to kiwi children through partnerships with NZ businesses and lower decile schools. Their philosophy is that “It’s cool to read, and it’s cool to achieve!”, and they aim to provide books and a love of reading to kiwi kids who would not normally have that access or opportunity.
This is a cause that means a lot to us. We are committed to doing our bit to create meaningful outcomes for our communities, and Duffy Books in Homes provides a great way we can do this.
Younity is dedicated to sustainability in all its forms and passionate about ensuring that our unique environment is cared for.
