Our Community Countdown team members don surgical scrubs and perform simulated laparoscopic surgery using training equipment at Wellington Hospital, as part of the 2011 launch of the Countdown Kids Hospital Appeal. The Countdown Kids Hospital Appeal (formerly the Fresh Future Children’s Hospital Appeal) celebrated its fifth year in 2011. Through fundraising organised by staff across the country, we were able to present 10 children’s hospitals and wards around New Zealand with cheques totalling more than $800,000 in 2011 bringing the total to more than $4.5 million raised since 2007.
The Salvation Army Countdown is a long-time supporter of the work The Salvation Army does. In 2012, we once again stepped in to support The Salvation Army’s annual Red Shield Appeal, and through Countdown Food Rescue we support over 110 of the Salvation Army’s local foodbanks across the country. Alzheimers New Zealand To support Alzheimers New Zealand and its Auckland charitable trust, Countdown has proudly sponsored Zealand’s largest charity golf day for the past nine years. In 2012, 300 golfers gathered to raise $153,000 for Alzheimers Auckland. Funds raised from the annual charity golf day help Alzheimers Auckland to provide free services for people with dementia and their carers. Māori Language Week Countdown has supported Māori Language Week since 2010 and has actively encouraged New Zealanders to embrace Te Reo in their everyday shopping. In June 2011 our Tokoroa store became the first with both English and Māori translations in every department. This was so successful that Countdown has since implemented Māori category translations in every new store. New Zealander of the Year Countdown is a proud sponsor of the New Zealander of the Year Awards. In this way, we celebrate and honour those New Zealanders aged 60 years and over who make a great contribution to their communities and our country.
