Switch Your Spend

07/10/2025

We’re so happy to be able to support such an essential good cause!

We need a whole lot more of you to jump on board and switch your spend so we can give back even more to these amazing causes.

You spend the money anyway, so why not make it count?

By taking action and simply buying your home and personal essentials online at www.switchyourspend.co.nz instead of at the supermarket, you've helped make a difference to the patients and whānau we care for.

We are so incredibly thankful to each and every one of you for taking part and helping us, all with the money you spend anyway.

Want to know the best part about using Switch Your Spend to raise funds?

It's ongoing. Every time you shop moving forward, we still get 100% of the profit. And that means over the course of a year, what will have been raised through all of you taking part and switching your spend for us will be huge!

So keep on going. Keep switching your spend. And make a difference simply by spending the money you already do. It doesn't get easier than that.

We’re super excited to be helping HUHANZ raise much needed funds to continue doing the amazing work they do!

If we can get just 1400 people switching their spend for them, we’ll be able to raise around $100,000 per year. How cool would that be?!

🌟In case you haven’t heard the news yet🌟

We’ve got an awesome opportunity to raise funds to
help us save the lives of countless animals.

All you have to do is shop online for your household and personal essentials at
www.switchyourspend.co.nz instead of at the supermarket and then you get to redirect 100%
of the profit to us simply by selecting ‘HUHA’ at the checkout.

What we raise depends entirely on how many of you take action and simply shop online to
support us instead.

A huge thank you to those of you who have already supported us! We’ll have an update on how
much you’ve all managed to raise coming soon! 🥰

Just in the nick of time - we’re excited to introduce Switch Your Spend with you all, to help us raise funds to save the lives of as many additional horses as possible from the July muster, WITHOUT it costing you anything other than what you already spend.

All you have to do is shop online for your household and personal essentials at www.switchyourspend.co.nz instead of at the supermarket and then you get to redirect 100% of the profit to us simply by selecting ‘Kaimanawa Legacy Foundation’ at the checkout.

And that’s it!

All of this works on the premise that we all spend the money anyway, so why not make it count?

What we will raise is only limited by how many of you decide to take part. If all 6400 of our followers took part, we could raise $38,400 this week alone, allowing us to save the lives of 10 more horses.

We've managed to raise $748 to help save a life so far thanks to our amazing customers!

For every $2,500 raised, another horse gets a chance to live.

We only need around 300 people to switch their spend to make this a reality.

Only 300 people to buy stuff they already buy, with money they already spend. It's so simple. So let's do it!

It’s the Final Countdown.

We’re now in our final 24 hours before applications close—and there are still over 77 Kaimanawa horses whose lives hang in the balance.

These are not just numbers. These are living, breathing horses—stallions who’ve survived decades in the wild, mares who’ve protected their foals from helicopters, and youngsters who may never have a chance at life beyond the ranges. They are sensitive, intelligent, and adaptable. The horses from the April Muster have already proven their worth over the last six weeks of training. They are ready to be someone’s heart horse.

We’ve saved more than 200 horses already—which is nothing short of extraordinary. But these last 77 are the hardest. The ones that still need someone to step up and say, “I can give this horse a future.”

We know it’s a big ask. But if there’s even a glimmer of possibility that you could take on a horse—whether you’re a trainer, an experienced horseperson, or someone willing to work alongside a professional—now is the moment to act.

Applications close tomorrow night.

If you’re not in a position to adopt, please consider donating or sharing this post. Every action counts. Every horse matters.

Let’s give all 279 horses a second chance.

GIVEAWAY FOR UPPER HUTT LOCALS! We’ve got a little bit of outdated stock to clear out, so we thought why not do something extra for the community and offer it for free for those who need it. Come and grab it this Saturday at 1pm from Garage16, 6 Railway Avenue, Upper Hutt. First in first served so be quick! And while you’re here, check out their cool Art Gallery.

We gave out over $7000 worth of Gift Vouchers over the last 3 days! If all those people switched their spend, we’d raise $72,000 for good causes!

New and exciting things coming soon 👀

09/02/2025

Let us tell you about a pretty cool way to really spread the word and make a difference.

It’s as simple as telling two people, instead of just one.

Because if you told one person, who told one person, who told one person, and this happened 14 times, 14 people would know about Switch Your Spend.

But if you told two people, who told two people, who told two people and that happened 14 times, 16,382 people would know about Switch Your Spend.

16,382 people switching their spend would raise almost $100,000 per month and just under $1.2 Million per year for your good causes. Pretty neat, huh?

Everytime you place an order, we give you two gift vouchers to pass onto two friends or family members who might like to switch their spend, too.

We all spend the money anyway, so why not make it count?
