In March, Craigs Investment Partners will again be organising a company-wide fundraiser to support New Zealand’s regional rescue helicopters. This year, the company has generously agreed to support this challenge by matching upto $25,000 of funds raised for the various Helicopter Trusts. ​​​​​​​

Entrants of teams or individuals can run, walk, cycle or any other form of exercise, and complete a challenge of 50kms per day.

By completing this challenge over the 31 days of March, you would have completed a total of at least 1550kms. That’s almost the length of New Zealand!

Below is the list of Regional Rescue Helicopter Trusts that you can choose to donate to. When you create your team please nominate a Regional Rescue Helicopter Trust by either copying and pasting from list below or by using the search function.
