Last year, New Zealand’s rescue helicopters rescued almost 5,000 people.

The next person we save could be you or someone you know. Your donations are an essential part of keeping the Rescue Choppers operational. So even if you can only spare a few dollars, it could make a big difference.

There are a number of ways you can make a donation to the Rescue Helicopter Appeal:

By phone: Phone 0900 4CHOPPER (0900 424 67737) to make a $20 donation.

At a branch: Drop into your nearest Westpac branch.

100% of your donation will go to your local rescue helicopter.
