Community involvement
Backing the communities we work in, wherever it is needed, is an important part of doing business at BDO. This philosophy is aligned with the values that we maintain as a firm and our desire to make a positive and enduring difference.
While at BDO, we’re certainly not mental health experts, as advisers to over 16,000 businesses across Aotearoa, we are in a unique position to see the impacts of a wide range of factors on New Zealand business leaders and their businesses – including financial, economic, regulatory, environmental and social. Launched in June 2022, the BDO Business Wellbeing Index – BDO Te Rangahau o Ngā Hauora Pai - is a unique biannual study exploring the relationship between wellbeing and business performance in the New Zealand business sector. Read our latest report here, featuring a range of practical tips to help navigate our current business context.
Our other local community involvements encompass both financial support and investment of our people's expertise and time. We are committed to making a real difference to the causes and sponsorships we support.
BDO local community days
Many BDO offices throughout New Zealand give their staff an additional day of paid leave to contribute to a local community cause that's important to them. This could mean collecting donations for a local cause, making meals at a hospital or cleaning up rubbish in the Hauraki Gulf. Every team member intention is valued and rewarded, whichever cause they choose to support.
Community involvement around our offices

This includes sports clubs, tournaments and events, natural heritage preservation, historical restorations, Not-for-Profit organisations, arts festivals, exhibitions and awards, theatrical societies, schools and charities.
