100 wealthy New Zealanders who believe our public services are underfunded think they should be the ones to pay up.
The group has signed a pledge calling on the Government to increase their taxes.
Inspired by the initiative Millionaires for Humanity, it believes the current tax system contributes towards the gap between poor and the wealthy.
Ex-Retirement Commissioner, Dame Diana Crossan told Kate Hawkesby higher taxes are better than philanthropy, as the money is shared more widely.
