At The Moving Company, we believe in doing more than just helping people move homes – we’re committed to supporting the communities and environment that make Aotearoa, New Zealand such a special place to call home.
We’re really pleased to announce our new sponsorship supporting the Save the Kiwi team, a leading conservation charity dedicated to protecting New Zealand’s most iconic native bird. As a new sponsor of this incredible cause, we’re thrilled to play a part in helping 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, and a network of passionate volunteers, Save the Kiwi has helped give thousands of kiwis a fighting chance. With less than 70,000 kiwis left in the wild and their numbers declining, so we are excited to be part of this programme.
The Moving Company is proud to come on board as an official sponsor of 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.
Supporting kiwi conservation is an important part of our commitment to protecting the native bird of Aotearoa, and every chick that grows up strong and safe brings new hope for the future of the kiwi.
We’re excited to share that JP, the kiwi aligned with our sponsorship, has hatched, and we will be following his journey closely – tracking his growth and progress all the way through to his release into a predator‑free sanctuary where he can thrive.
We were delighted to receive a unique opportunity from Save the Kiwi – the chance to name a kiwi chick being cared for at the Gallagher Kiwi Burrow.
Save the Kiwi encourages names with a strong story or clear rationale – whether inspired by someone special, an important attribute, or a connection to the organisation itself. JP’s name carries exactly that: a genuine story of someone who embodied dedication, friendship, and the spirit of our company.
Our involvement goes beyond sponsorship – it’s about helping protect young kiwi as they grow strong and prepare for life in the wild. One of these chicks is MC, a kiwi we’ve had the privilege of supporting on her journey from the Napier Kiwi Crèche to her new home in Maungataniwha.
The Moving Company’s partnership with Save the Kiwi is part of our wider commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. From introducing our first electric moving vehicle to achieving Toitu carbon reduce certification, we’re committed to doing what we can to provide a bright future for the next generation.
