Home About Us Rescue Crew Helicopter Information Technology Sponsors & Supporters Contacts

Sponsors and Supporters

The Trust has to raise between $400,000 to $500,000 per year to support the fixed costs of leasing the helicopter and maintaining pilots, paramedics and support crew, permanently ready to respond to emergency calls.

The Trust acknowledges the outstanding support of our sponsers and supporters.

 

 Otago Regional Council

The Otago Regional Council is the major supporter of the Otago Regional Rescue Helicopter. The Council sees the rescue helicopter service as providing a vital link between the comparatively isolated communities throughout the region and the specialised care of Dunedin Hospital.


Donations and Gifts

The Trust receives vital support from a number of community organisations and private individuals both with funding for specific purchases of rescue equipment or contributions to the high costs of maintaining the helicopter, pilots and crew on permanent standby 24 /7.

We gratefully acknowledge generous support from the following:
