We’re taking on an epic challenge this March – and would love your support.

We’re taking on a month-long fitness challenge to help keep the Starship Air Ambulance flying and to help save the lives of sick and injured children all over Aotearoa.

Will you donate to support our challenge, and help take our fundraising tally sky high?


The Starship National Air Ambulance is New Zealand’s only flying Paediatric Intensive Care Unit. It’s on call 24/7. A full crew can be in the air in a matter of minutes.


This is often the only way a seriously ill or injured can get to a major hospital in time.
But they're counting on your support.


That’s why we’ll be giving it our all this March to help keep the Starship National Air Ambulance flying 24/7. Will you support us? Donate now to help save the lives of Kiwi kids.

Thank you to our Sponsors
