🌊 Supporting Coastguard The Big Swim Aotearoa!
This June we're proud to support The Big Swim Aotearoa 2025 – an inspiring challenge with heart, raising vital funds for Coastguard Tautiaki Moana, Aotearoa New Zealand’s primary water safety, rescue and education organisation.
As the trusted team Kiwis turn to for help on the water, Coastguard depends on the generosity of people like you to continue saving lives and keeping our communities safe.
By taking part in The Big Swim and fundraising for Coastguard, we’re helping ensure that everyone can enjoy Aotearoa New Zealand’s waters safely and with confidence – no matter where they live or how they play.
💙 At Emergency Cards, we’re all about being prepared before the unexpected happens. Whether on land or out at sea, having the right tools and information ready can make all the difference. That’s why this means so much to us.
🙏 Join us in supporting this incredible cause!
Donate today and help fund rescue missions, education, and the resources Coastguard needs to keep doing what they do best — protecting lives.
Let’s swim with purpose and stay safe — together.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
