Client Services Cooks: Stirring Up Support!

There is nothing more welcome to those who need it than the sound of an approaching rescue

helicopter, and that lifesaving sound will be used to encourage New Zealanders to give generously this

Chopper Appeal Month.

100% of all donations go to your local chopper, enabling them to continue helping those in need.

Whether it’s airlifting new mums in labour, saving adventurers from life-threatening incidents or

rescuing boaties from severe storms, your contributions keep New Zealanders safe, whatever they’re

doing.

Last year, 9,289 potentially lifesaving missions were flown and the Westpac Chopper Appeal raised a

record $1.44 million for the rescue helicopter trusts around the country.

Every dollar raised goes directly to the local rescue helicopters in the area where it was donated -

ensuring that funds stay within the community, helping those who need it most.

These helicopters provide lifesaving assistance around the clock, responding to emergencies 24/7,

every day of the year. We rely on the dedication of our staff to champion this cause, raise funds, and

spread awareness of the incredible work these helicopters do nationwide.
