A few hundred years ago, millions of kiwi roamed Aotearoa. Today, New Zealand is home to just 70,000, and despite efforts that number drops by 2% every year.

Kiwis for kiwi is on a mission to turn that decline around. We partner with kiwi conservation projects all over New Zealand, with a long-term vision to increase the population by 2% every year and take our national icon from endangered to everywhere.

But we need your help. Please make a donation or organise a fundraising event to make sure the kiwi sticks around for future generations.
