I'm fundraising for the Waikato Westpac Rescue Helicopter
What I will be doing: On March 16th 2025, I am taking part in the Hamilton Half Marathon.
I want to do this because: A few years ago the team from Waikato saved my father after a car accident. So I am doing this event to help raise money for this life saving service.
About this service: The Waikato Westpac Rescue Helicopter is a fully-fledged air emergency medical service that services the whole of the Waikato region, including the Coromandel and the King Country. It brings life-saving equipment and rescue personnel directly to patients, 24/7, 365 days a year, and is staffed by an amazing & experienced crew of Critical Care Flight Paramedics (CCFP), Crewmen and Pilots. Donations from fundraising go towards the operational costs, which helps ensure the rescue helicopter can continue to carry out life-saving missions, whenever and wherever needed.
