Membership
Variety - The Children's Charity is an Incorporated Society. Although we no longer use the word 'Club' we remain a member-based
organisation. Once run completely by its members, Variety has, over the past 10 years, moved responsibility for its day-to-day operations to a small professional management team.
Members today, however, are still the life and breath of the organisation. From the membership is drawn the Variety Board (Executive Committee), Grants Committee, Friends and various fundraising and awareness sub-committees. Hailing from all walks of life, Variety members are
passionate individuals committed to improving the lives of New Zealand children.
There are three levels of membership:
Gold Heart Members:- play an active role in the governance of Variety in New Zealand with voting rights
at the Annual General Meeting and eligibility to stand for Executive Committee (Board), Grants and other sub-committees.
- entry is by invitation, with the support of two existing members, and payment of annual fee.
- Gold Heart Members benefit from event and merchandise discounts
Silver Heart Members:
- have a strong interest in Variety but do not wish to actively participate in the governance of the organisation.
- entry is by payment of annual fee, invitation is not required.
Bronze Heart Members:
- are awarded their membership in recognition of the special contributions they make as individuals.
- no fee is payable.
The Variety Membership year runs from January to December with paid-up Gold Heart Members eligible to vote at the AGM in November.
