The Period Place
Access to period products should be a given, not a nice to have. We partnered with The Period Place to help combat period poverty in New Zealand. There are donation boxes in The Warehouse stores nationwide where customers and the public can donate period products to support people facing period inequality in their local communities.
We're also proud to offer free period products in all team member bathrooms across our store network, distribution centres and support office locations.
Youth Employment
We're incredibly proud to be part of the Gateway programme to build careers in retail in partnership with ServiceIQ. The programme provides Year 12-13 students practical experience and insights into the inner workings of the retail industry, to gain work-ready skills and the opportunity to contribute to their NCEA qualification. We've been part of the programme since 2014 and have seen over 15,000 students complete their work experience with us.
Be the Joy Campaign
The Warehouse Group's 'Be the Joy' campaign sees us partner with Women's Refuge & Variety - The Childrens Charity to help bring cheer to Kiwi's struggling over the festive period.
Customers at all of our brands across New Zealand can purchase a $10 gift tag in store and for every gift tag sold, The Warehouse Group will donate a $25 gift to a child in need.
The Warehouse stores nationwide also collect new, unwrapped gifts for their local Women's Refuge shelter.
Family Violence Policy
The Warehouse Group has taken a leadership position in supporting any of our team affected by family violence. We offer up to 15 days leave for any team member experiencing family violence.
Additionally, we also offer up to three nights accommodation at an approved hotel to help affected team members needing emergency shelter.
Shielded Website
Our association with Women's Refuge provides shielded sites on our brand websites so people experiencing family violence can ask for help anonymously without fear of it showing up in their browsers history or abusive partner ever seeing it.
Kindness Collective
The Warehouse partnered with the Kindness Collective during the July Mega Toy Sale to donate $55,000 worth of new toys and $50,000 of vouchers to purchase new toys for deserving kids across New Zealand. The Kindness Collective is a fantastic organisation that helps over 100,000 Kiwis in need get access to the essentials.
Orange Sky Aotearoa
This year, Noel Leeming partnered with Orange Sky Aotearoa, an incredible non-for-profit that provides free laundry services, warm showers and genuine connections for Kiwis experiencing homelessness and hardship. With our generous customer donations at checkouts, we raised over $20,000 for the charity.
Back to School
This year for our Back to School campaign, The Warehouse and Warehouse Stationery partnered with KidsCan to donate over 100,000 essential stationery items to 73 lower-decile KidsCan schools across New Zealand including sun hats, pencil cases, notebooks, rubbers, rulers, glue sticks, pencils, pens and sun cream.
P-TECH Programme
Across this year, we have continued our role as a key partner in the Pathways in Technology (IBM P-TECH) programme. P-TECH helps get students job-ready by developing their digital skills and is now in 28 countries globally.
As an industry partner, TWG provides financial assistance, paid internships, mentors who coach, guide and support the students throughout the programme, and the opportunity for P-TECH graduates to apply for roles within TWG.
