These emails are NOT from Westpac and we advise anyone who receives one to forward it to phishing@westpac.co.nz

If you hover over the link you’ll see it goes to a scam site called mothersawakening. The account number they supply is NOT the correct account for donations.

The correct account number for donations to the Christchurch Foundation - Our City, Our People Fund is 15-3976-0091104-080.

If in doubt, please check with us or come into a branch and we can assist with donations.
