Become an Advocate

Advocates are partners of TEAR Fund’s ministry. They help to promote, support and organise our programmes in their local communities, churches, small groups, youth groups and at events. Our aim is to have advocates and representatives from every region and church in this country.

By becoming an advocate you reach out to the poor and oppressed through practical expressions of love. You also meet like-minded people, concerned about social justice. You gain in confidence and increase your skills base as you promote our ministry. Advocating with TEAR Fund is fun, flexible and rewarding, enabling you to use your time and talent to change the world.

Advocates can help in many ways. These include:

Helping out at events
Speaking in churches, small groups, youth groups, community groups and schools
Becoming a prayer partner
Promoting our child sponsorship programme
Promoting Microenterprise development
Promoting our Gift for Life catalogue
Helping in the TEAR Fund's Auckland office
Maintaining a TEAR Fund display in your church
Being an Area Representative
Organising fundraising events
Supporting advocacy campaigns
You may even have your own ideas on how you would like to help

We know you are busy, that is why you decide on the level of commitment you are comfortable with, and the areas in which you would like to be involved. There will never be any pressure to do more than you have time for. We will provide you all the necessary support, resources, ideas and training.
