Digital Future Aotearoa

Digital Future Aotearoa is on a mission to close the digital divide by inspiring the next generation of creators and innovators, so our tamariki and rangatahi are able to thrive in the increasingly digital world!

Collective
Impact

Over 80 givers have collectively raised $50,079.04 for Digital Future Aotearoa. That's the equivalent of 269 laptops given to people in need, and diverted from landfills, by teaching high school students the tech engineering skills to refurbish them.

What We Do.

We shift young people from being passive consumers of technology, to active creators and innovators. Our programmes provide free learning and access for rangatahi, tamariki and kaiako.

Having a laptop is critical to accessing education, services and to participate in daily life.  That's why our Recycle A Device (RAD) initiative gets free laptops to those who need them by fixing up used laptops, so it's great for the environment too.

Code Club nurtures curiosity and creativity in free weekly learn to code clubs across the motu, where over 4,000 tamariki come together to use technology to solve problems.  Learning these skills now, will open up so many options for these children in the future.

Supporting positive development for tamariki and rangatahi includes building the strengths and capabilities of those in their support network. We work with both kaiako in our Ōtautahi Outreach programme, strengthening teaching practice and upskilling to support ākonga to succeed.

By supporting us today, you’re providing future focused opportunities to help our young people self-determine their own path tomorrow.

How it Works

Choose your charities

We’ve partnered with 14 trusted Kiwi-based charities. Choose one, some, or all. Tell us how much you want to give and how often. Set up once, then we’ll do the rest. Easy!

100% to charity

When you donate to a charity via One Percent Collective, a dollar given is a dollar received. The charity gets 100% of your donations. We don't take a cut.

See your impact

We’ll make sure you know what your dollars are doing. The difference they're making, the lives they're changing, and the stories they're creating.*

Don't just take our word for it.

I like the cause, the simplicity, and the flexibility of One Percent Collective. Keep up the great work!
