Support us

Only together can we save lives.

IN PARTNERSHIP

With our community

With the support of individuals, families and businesses like you, Medi-Flight Taranaki operates Taranaki’s dedicated air medical services – free of cost, 24/7.

Support Crew & Donations

We believe that when we set out on a mission, it’s not just the pilot and the crew onboard. It’s the individuals, families, and businesses on the ground, who help us save lives in the Taranaki region.

As a supporter of our organisation you will receive newsletters twice a year so that you can keep up with the work being done by your Rescue Helicopter and Air Ambulance, and we encourage our supporters to follow us on Facebook and Instagram.

Donations to a charitable trust, like Medi-Flight Taranaki Charitable Trust, qualify for a 33.33% tax rebate. We will provide you with a tax receipt for your donation.

If you have any questions about your donations, please call us on 0508 4737 283.

Sponsorship

By supporting Medi-Flight Taranaki, your company is ensuring there is a fast, life-saving air rescue service available for our community. In return, we can provide you with a mutually beneficial partnership and work together to achieve mutual business goals.

As a Sponsor you could:

Sponsor a Mission

As a Business Supporter you could:

Nominate us as your Charity of the Year
Create an employee fundraising activity
Encourage payroll giving (a tax-efficient way to donate)

Whatever your sponsorship objectives, we look forward to working towards a bespoke solution that caters to your requirements.

Working together we can save lives.

Like to hold an Event?

You don’t have to take part in a scheduled event to raise money for Medi-Flight Taranaki. It’s easy to support us by organising your own activity. Get together with friends, family, work colleagues, club members or school friends. Just decide what you’d like to do and let us know so that we can provide fundraising advice and donation forms to help make your event a success.

Here are just a few ideas we have come up with:

Quiz night
Non-uniform day
Bike rides
Scooter runs
Coffee mornings
Cake Sales
Car washing and car boot sales
Comedy night

We are endlessly grateful for all community based fundraising efforts and as such likes to assist where possible and acknowledge those involved appropriately.

Payroll Giving

Donating through your Pay

Setting up a regular donation can be an easy process when using Payroll Giving. Each time you are paid by your employer, your donation will be made directly to Medi-Flight Taranaki..

Payroll giving is administered through the online PAYE tax system, so we recommend checking with your employer to see if they are set up for this.

All donations over $5 qualify for an immediate 33.33% tax rebate each payday. You will not need to wait until the end of the year to claim your tax credit as you will receive it each time your donation is processed with your pay.

Leaving a Legacy

Leaving a legacy in your Will will ensure we can continue our service long into the future.

A gift left in your Will, at any value, is received with sincere gratitude. Once a bequest is in place we appreciate you telling us so we can personally thank you for your support and plan for the future.

Gift Options:

Residual Gift – After providing for your family, you may nominate a part or all of what is remaining of your estate (the residual) to Medi-Flight Taranaki.

Percentage – You may leave a nominated percentage or fraction of your estate to Medi-Flight.

Special Gift – You may choose to leave a set amount of money, real estate, jewellery, shares, bonds or any other gift you wish to nominate.

You may wish to do this confidentially and we can put you in touch directly with our Chairman, Evan Cottam, to discuss.
