Tuatahi First Fibre is proud to announce a new partnership with Cure Kids, one of New Zealand’s leading child health research charities. This collaboration reflects a shared commitment to improving the health and wellbeing of children across Aotearoa through investment in innovative medical research.
As an Associate Partner, Tuatahi First Fibre will provide financial support, fundraising initiatives, and awareness campaigns to help advance Cure Kids’ mission of funding breakthrough research into serious childhood illnesses. The partnership will also see Tuatahi First Fibre actively engage its staff and wider community in supporting Cure Kids’ programmes and events.
Tuatahi Chief Executive Richard Riley said the partnership provides an opportunity for the company and its people to support work that makes a meaningful difference for children and families across Aotearoa.
“Cure Kids has an extraordinary record of supporting research that improves and saves young lives. We are proud to partner with an organisation making such a tangible difference and to help increase awareness and support for this vital work,” said Richard .
“The partnership is a meaningful addition to our sponsorship portfolio and broadens the ways we can contribute to communities across Aotearoa. We’re also looking forward to giving our people opportunities to get involved and support this important cause.”
One of the first opportunities for Tuatahi to get involved will be the Rebel Sport 24hr Team Challenge, which brings teams together to keep a bike or treadmill moving continuously for 24 hours while raising funds for Cure Kids.
For more than 50 years, Cure Kids has been at the forefront of child health research in New Zealand, funding critical studies into conditions such as cancer, diabetes, cystic fibrosis and infectious diseases.
Cure Kids Head of Partnerships Rod Allan said this new partnership will help accelerate research efforts and bring hope to families facing serious health challenges.
"We are thrilled to welcome Tuatahi First Fibre as an Associate Partner," said Rod.
"Support from organisations like Tuatahi First Fibre enables us to continue funding life-changing research that has a real impact on the lives of children and their families. Together, we are helping create hope for a brighter future for generations of Kiwi kids."
Together, Tuatahi First Fibre and Cure Kids aim to create lasting positive outcomes for children’s health and contribute to a brighter future for the next generation.
