Help us save lives

It costs approximately $19 million to run Wellington Free Ambulance every year. While a portion of the operational budget is met by government agencies including ACC and the Ministry of Health, Wellington Free Ambulance has to raise the balance of around $3 million from sponsorship, grants, bequests, fundraising events and public appeals.

It is with the support our sponsors and charity partners that we can keep the free in Wellington Free Ambulance.
