Welcome to Quota Clubs New Zealand
ABOUT US
Quota Clubs in New Zealand and other countries around the world are non-profit volunteer groups supporting people in their local communities. Members enjoy friendship and making a difference through hands on service and financial assistance to a wide variety of causes.
OUR PROGRAMMES
Quota means ‘a share’ and members share their time and talents in a range of service projects dedicated to particular needs in their local communities. These projects promote awareness of Quota’s support for women, young people, the deaf and hard of hearing, those with speech needs and those at risk or disadvantaged.
Clubs’ support includes The Hearing House, Senior Citizens, Children’s hospitals and health services, the Cancer Societies, Hospices, Sports groups, Scholarships.
SCHOLARSHIPS
After 11 years of awarding a Scholarship of $5,000 to a student embarking on their first year of study, the Pye Foundation and New Zealand Quota clubs have, with sadness, decided not to continue with the Quota NZ Educational Scholarship.
We have been impressed by the calibre of girls applying for the Scholarship and moved by the hardships many of them have suffered that has affected their ability to fund their education.
However, it is time for The Pye Foundation to move on to other projects.
It has also become more difficult for Quota members to sustain the work needed to keep the Scholarship running.
