More than 40,000 people have been helped by Life Flight in their time of need. For many of those, the emergency flight saved their life. Thank you to the following generous local businesses who have partnered with Life Flight to save lives, together.
Principal Sponsors
-
Westpac and Life Flight have worked together since 1981. Over the past four decades there have been dramatic rescues, technological advancements, and countless lives saved. Life Flight is grateful for the ongoing support of Westpac, who are the naming rights sponsor of the Rescue Helicopter. -
Not-for-profit Kiwi health insurer Accuro is the principal Air Ambulance supporter for the Life Flight Trust. “We share the same philosophies, we are both not-for-profits and we are both dedicated to supporting the health of Kiwis in tough times,” says Lance Walker, CEO of Accuro Health Insurance. “We are also providing health insurance cover for their air ambulance staff, so if they do need medical care themselves, they can receive it as soon as possible and get back to their critical life-saving work.” -
MMNZ is a proud supporter of a number of local charities. Life Flight was a natural fit as a partner, not just because of the amazing work they do in the community, but also because the service has touched a number of our own staff directly. The fact that 1 in 5 missions conducted by Life Flight involve a baby or child in urgent need, meant that there was no question that MMNZ needed to step-up and get involved. In conjunction with our Wellington-based Mitsubishi Motors dealers, we look forward to helping Life Flight in their critical work.
