DONATE NOW TO HELP THE SEARCH

Don’t feel blue about black Friday or any day,

add a splash of orange joy to your life!

Thank you in advance for making a donation!

There are three options below - a donation system that allows you to use your credit card, followed by information for a direct bank payment, either of which can be for an amount and frequency you choose.

The third option is as a gift in your will. We have joined ‘Gathered Here’ to offer a free simple online will-writing service where you can consider all the important things including adding our or any charity if you wish.

A fourth option is to become a Friend of the Trust and of the South Island kōkako with regular donations. Find out more here.

Donate by Credit Card

This is a new donation system for the Trust - if you discover any teething problems, please let us know by email. Fees are less than 3% (compared to 5% from Givealittle) - or see below for making a direct bank donation.

Or donate by direct bank payment

If you'd rather make a direct payment than use the Trust's credit or debit card donation system, that would be wonderful too!  You can set up any amount for any frequency either on line or at your bank.  Please do get in touch by email or phone (03 755 8600) to let us know so that we can thank you and issue a receipt. 

The Trust’s bank account is South Island Kōkako Charitable Trust, Acc No: 03-1599-0413403-00.  Thank you!

And / Or consider including a gift in your will

A gift in your will helps the South Island Kōkako Charitable Trust work towards our vision:

WE CONFIRM THAT THE REMARKABLE SOUTH ISLAND KŌKAKO EXISTS …

SO THAT IT CAN BE CONSERVED APPROPRIATELY

If you are one of the four in ten New Zealanders who have not yet written a will, you are clearly not alone.

‘Gathered Here’ has recently launched a free online will-writing service in New Zealand to make it simpler and more accessible for all adults.  Provided you don’t have great complexity to your family and your estate, their easy to use template will help you write your will in no time.

Not only have Gathered Here made this task, one that so many of us keep putting off, very easy, they have also linked it to charities like ours.  They have found that many people would like to include their favourite charity or charities in their will but don’t know how.  By using this simple template, people like us are enabled to add a charity, or more than one charities, very easily.

For these reasons, we have partnered with Gathered Here to offer you the opportunity to write your free online will and receive unlimited updates for life. Get rid of that nagging worry that you really should have done it by now!

Find out more here and one click from that page takes you to the template and gets you started.

There is no need to include our charity or any charity.  The free template can be used by anyone.  It will prompt you to consider how your estate should be divided, who should be your executors, who you would like to receive precious items and other handy things like looking after your pet and your funeral wishes.

Thank you.
