The Moving Company in New Zealand has announced its sponsorship of Save the Kiwi, a leading conservation charity dedicated to protecting New Zealand’s most iconic native bird. As a sponsor, the company is helping to ensure the survival of the kiwi for generations to come. Save the Kiwi is the only national charity dedicated solely to protecting New Zealand’s beloved kiwi. Their mission is simple but powerful: to grow kiwi populations and return them to safe places in the wild, where they can live and thrive without the threat of predators.
Through the development of predator-free habitats, partnership with iwi (the indigenous Māori society), and a network of passionate volunteers, Save the Kiwi has helped give thousands of kiwis a fighting chance. There are currently fewer than 70,000 kiwis left in the wild and their numbers declining. A spokesperson for The Moving Company said that the company is proud to sponsor Save the Kiwi. “As a New Zealand-owned and operated business with a strong connection to our heritage, we’re passionate about supporting initiatives that make a real impact. Our sponsorship directly supports kiwi conservation projects and contributes to long-term goals of increasing kiwi numbers and returning them to the wild. We’re excited to be taking part in meaningful, future-focused work that aligns with our company values and our connection to New Zealand.”
The Moving Company has its own kiwi (called MC), aligned with its sponsorship, seen hatching in the photo. The company will track the growth of MC through to its release into a predator free sanctuary for kiwis.
