We welcome you to MyFundAction’s Youth Development Centre

MyFundAction Youth Development Centre (MYDC)

We are a non-profit organisation based in Queenstown with a mission to provide young people with the skills and knowledge to be the next leaders in solving global issues.

At MYDC, we support the Queenstown local youth aged 13-35 to develop their skills in four key areas: Entrepreneurship, Volunteerism, Academic Excellence, and Leadership.

What we do?

We do this by developing and running programs, workshops, and activities here at our Youth Centre with the help of our community and dedicated volunteers. From educational workshops to our monthly Youth Market, we’re here to empower the Youth to be the best they can be. 

With our space open 10am-8pm every day, our community is invited to hang out, study, perform prayer (including Friday prayer) or play a game of ping-pong! Check out our schedule to see when the space is free for drop-in.

What facilities do we offer?

Our space is multicultural, welcoming, and a place where everyone can come together whatever their background. For the Muslim community, we have a prayer room, wudhu rooms, and a halal cafe (check out the menu here)

Other facilities include:

Calling all Queenstown's Young Entrepreneurs!

We are currently recruiting stallholders for Queenstown’s very first Youth Market. If you’re aged under 35 and have something to sell, or a service to advertise, and would like to contribute to a good cause - sign up today! 

Stallholder application form > https://forms.gle/NGX6ocEMa9YrZSyr6

Remember to tell your whanau & hoa!

*To hold a stall is free, but a prior commitment must be made to allocate 15% of your sales revenue to MyFundAction NZ. But rest assured, if you don’t sell, you don’t pay. If you want to advertise your service, you pay a $15 flat fee.

Every Friday, 10.30-12.30

As part of our commitment to our community, every Friday we open up our space to Mums & Bubs from all backgrounds. Come along, connect, and enjoy a coffee from the cafe. Everyone welcome! 

We have a few toys kindly donated by Plunket and Komunal Cafe regularly offers deals exclusively to the Mums. We look forward to seeing you there!

Every Friday, timing changes

Every Friday, Muslims from our Queenstown Community come together to pray. Non-Muslims are invited to come along too, and either join the prayer or observe. 

For weekly timings, please call 03 657 1010 or email catherine@myfundaction.org.
