World of Difference programme

The World of Difference programme is all about finding 6 passionate people who want to work helping young Kiwis for a year, and paying them to do it. We’re talking swapping the everyday grind for real life-changing job satisfaction, with a salary, funding and even expenses attached. It’s not often you get this kind of leg-up in life.

World of Difference has been running since 2002 and so far 45 inspiring individuals have been involved in making a difference in the lives of others.

Want to be one of these 6 or know someone who would? Click here for more details on applying.  Applications close on 3 September 2010.

World of Difference Ripple programme

This year, there’s a twist … we’re looking for an additional 25 passionate people to spend three months helping existing World of Difference charity partners have a greater effect in improving the lives of young Kiwis.  We’ll pay you.
