In the community

nib is committed in supporting and encouraging better health for our community through a range of initiatives.

Our charitable organisation has partnered with community groups across Australia and New Zealand to help improve health and social outcomes for those in need with our focus areas being Prevention, Equality and Community.


nibgive

We encourage nib employees to give back to the communities where they live and work through our nibgive corporate volunteering program, matched payroll giving, and employee-led fundraising events supporting our foundation and community partners.


Sponsorship

Our brand partnerships and community sponsorships continue to promote healthy lifestyles for our members and community. We’re proud to sponsor both the men’s and women’s sporting teams at the Newcastle Knights, Richmond Football Club and the Blues in Auckland.


We believe we all have a role to play in reconciliation and nib is committed to creating and ensuring an inclusive and diverse community and work environment in which everyone is treated fairly and with respect, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. In October 2020, we released our first Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan in consultation with Reconciliation Australia.
