SOKK’s achievements have only been possible because of a team of friends and supporters that helps the ECOED Trust to remain financially afloat, turn the ambition into reality and get the message out.<\/span><\/h3>\n

\u200bThis year, we were grateful for contributions from:\u200b\u200b<\/strong><\/p>\n

World Wildlife Fund-NZ and the Tindall Foundation<\/span><\/strong>
\nOur thanks to WWF-NZ, the donation manager for the Tindall Foundation, which has been delivering community funding and support since 2000. WWF-New Zealand believes that providing assistance to communities and schools to take conservation action is vital to conserving biodiversity. The generous support they’ve given us in 2022 will help SOKK fund the retrieval and incubation of kiwi eggs from the Kaweka Forest Park and the raising of the resulting chicks at a Save the Kiwi facility.
