timeoutinnz.org.nz (TONZ) is a non-profit humanitarian effort to facilitate introductions of temporary hosted accommodation offers across New Zealand to victims in Japan who are needing some time out to reboot their lives in the aftermath of the devastating earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster that hit the Tohoku region of Japan on March 11, 2011.

It is not affiliated with any governmental or non-governmental organisation, however the initiative itself is supported by a large number of them, as noted within the Supporters section of the site. Useful links offering further support information have also been provided for hosts as well as Japanese people visiting NZ, if required.

timeoutinnz.org.nz is an informational service platform only and provides the means to connect Japanese people affected by the recent events in Japan an opportunity for some time out in New Zealand, and for governmental and non-governmental agencies to use for finding temporary accommodation for victims.

While TONZ will act on a best endeavours basis to match and introduce suitable hosts to suitable victims of the March 11 earthquake, both acceptance and arrangements between Hosts and Guests are to be discussed and agreed among themselves. timeoutinnz.org.nz is not a party to any discussions between Guests and Hosts and exists only to facilitate initial contact.
