Orange Sky New Zealand
Orange Sky provides a platform for everyday people to connect through a regular laundry and shower service. The first van, Hugo, hit the Auckland streets in October 2018 and is now a welcome visitor to the Pitt Street Methodist Church every Monday evening.
Refreshments are served by members of the Pitt Street Church congregations, who provide friendship and assistance.
The Auckland Street Choir
The Auckland Street Choir is made up of members of Auckland’s street community (people who are or have been homeless), as well as people who are marginalised in our society for any reason, and those who support them.
The choir aims to provide a safe and supportive musical environment where members may learn and sing, and to perform as a choir. Singing together brings enjoyment and a sense of wellbeing, and inclusion in the choir group brings a feeling of community and belonging, for the emotional as well as musical improvement to its members.
The choir has met weekly at the Pitt St Methodist Church for rehearsals on a Tuesday evening, since its inception in February 2015, and continues to be grateful to Auckland Methodist Central Parish for allowing the choir to use the basement room. It is a warm and welcoming space inside a beautiful building, where our members can feel comfortable and valued.
Our catchphrase - If on the edge is where you be, and streets are all that you can see come sing a song and share a meal; you’ll be amazed how good you’ll feel. https://www.facebook.com/AKLstreetchoir/

The Peace Foundation was formed in 1975 with a vision of building peaceful communities on the inter-personal, local, national and global levels. The initiative came from a small group of people concerned about the growing instances of violence worldwide, who had realised the need for research, education and action for the peaceful resolution of conflict. A number of the original group were members of the Society of Friends (Quakers), who were inspired by Quaker initiatives overseas, such as the establishment of a Chair of Peace Studies at the University of Bradford in the United Kingdom.
