Current Promotions

Every promotion we run powers something much bigger - key infrastructure projects supporting the Health network, emergency vehicles on the ground, education programs, and sporting initiatives that help develop thriving communities.

Shelby New Zealand Promotion

Matamata Panelworks and Shelby New Zealand, in partnership with NZ Rescue, are helping lead the effort to support redevelopment and infrastructure improvements at Pohlen Hospital.

Funds raised will contribute toward improving healthcare infrastructure and patient outcomes within the wider community.

Coromandel Rescue Helicopter Promotion

The Coromandel Rescue Helicopter Trust plays a critical role in supporting lifesaving emergency response across the region.

With support from the community, Coromandel Rescue helps fund essential service providers, medical equipment, and rescue infrastructure, protecting the wider Coromandel region.

The foundations that all communities are built on provide the basis for
individual strengths and resilience.

Not always visible, not always celebrated, and often
under-resourced - yet always essential.

Key to Communities exists to recognize and support the foundations that give
each community its strength and resilience. These foundations look different everywhere. They may be people, organisations, facilities, or initiatives - individually or collectively - providing the glue that holds things together and enable communities to thrive.

Key to Communities generates and directs meaningful funding toward these often-overlooked cornerstones, helping ensure they remain strong
for the people who rely on them.

It’s about backing what keeps a community strong - today and into the future.

NZ Rescue Charitable Trust

NZ Rescue Charitable Trust exists to support and strengthen communities across New Zealand by investing in initiatives that enhance health, education, sport, and long-term wellbeing.

Through our flagship "Key to Communities" initiative alongside our "Hooked on Communities" program, we aim to support communities in ways that reflect their unique environments, cultures, and local priorities. From urban centres, to rural towns, and coastal regions, we recognise that each community has distinct strengths, challenges, and opportunities.

Our purpose is to work alongside local organisations and partners to unlock community-led solutions that reflect these differences, addressing not only moments of crisis, but the broader needs that help communities thrive, connect, and build resilience for generations to come.
