How Your Support Helps

All proceeds from the raffle will directly benefit Ngā Manu Nature Reserve’s ongoing predator-free initiatives. As we celebrate our 50th Anniversary, the Ngā Manu Trust is dedicated to preserving New Zealand’s unique flora and fauna. Your contribution will help us continue our crucial work, including breed-for-release programs for endangered species like kiwi, tuatara, and kākāriki.

By investing in predator control, we can protect our native species from threats posed by stoats, ferrets, possums, and rats. Together, we can create safe havens for our precious wildlife, ensuring future generations can experience the beauty of New Zealand’s ecosystems.

Join Us in Our Conservation Mission

This raffle is not just about winning a trip; it’s about contributing to a brighter future for our native species. The Chatham Islands themselves share a similar predator-free vision, with the Chatham Island Restoration Trust aiming to see the main island free from target predators by 2050.

Thanks to the generous support of Air Chathams, Chatham Island Tours, and Hotel Chathams, we can offer this incredible opportunity while promoting conservation efforts that benefit us all.

Buy your ticket today for a chance to win this unforgettable experience and help us in our mission to make New Zealand a predator-free paradise! Together, we can protect our unique wildlife and ensure that stories of our endemic species are passed down to future generations.
