We are very proud to be a sponsor of the Save the Kiwi, the national charity working to ensure the survival of our most iconic bird.
Kiwis are our national icon and entwined with our identity as New Zealanders. The vision for Save the Kiwi is to see kiwi go from endangered to everywhere. They work with community-led kiwi conservation groups, iwi, DOC, landowners, businesses and Kiwis across the country to increase kiwi populations by 2% per year.
