Taskforce Kiwi

At Taskforce Kiwi we understand that just because you take off a uniform, doesn't mean that you stop serving. We also know that the motivation to serve isn't limited to military and emergency services veterans. And while the organisation is veteran-led, we welcome volunteers from across the wider community, Taskforce Kiwi consists of defence and emergency services veterans, and members of the wider community, with the skills, experience, motivation and grit to help communities recover from natural disasters. We're not first responders, instead working alongside existing emergency management agencies and communties, providing skilled volunteer resources to kickstart recovery, helping fellow Kiwis on their worst day.
