How and why we fundraise

WWF-New Zealand relies on the generosity of our supporters to fund our conservation and advocacy work. The majority of funds raised in New Zealand are spent in New Zealand, however a small proportion is used to support the work of WWF internationally.

Most fundraising income comes from individual supporters, generous people like you across New Zealand. We also receive funding from trusts and foundations and corporate sponsors.

WWF-New Zealand is a registered charity CC33788. Our IRD number is 026-914-744. We are committed to fundraising in a manner that is consistent with our values of courage, collaboration, respect and integrity.
