St John & the need for regular support
St John is extremely grateful for the continued generosity of the general public in meeting the rising demand for its frontline service.
St John regular givers, members of Team Green, play an especially important role in meeting this critical need.
Thank you to all Team Green members - your backup provides us with the support that we need to save lives!

- Why does St John do face to face fundraising?
Face to face fundraising is one of the most cost effective ways that charities like St John can gain substantial support for important funding needs.
Our St John face to face fundraisers are a committed group of people passionate about St John. Every day they speak to New Zealanders about the important role the public plays in supporting St John frontline services.
St John has partnered with two leading face to face fundraising agencies, Cornucopia and Appco. Both partnerships play an important role in helping St John meet the rising demand for frontline services.
- How can I identify a St John fundraiser?
Authorised St John Team Green fundraisers will:
- Be wearing: a Team Green polo shirt with Team Green badges on the sleeves, a St John lanyard and possibly a black jacket with St John branding (weather dependant)
- Display a Cornucopia or an Appco ID card with their name, photo and St John contact information
- Provide all new Team Green members with a welcome pack and a copy of their direct debit / credit card commitment to St John
- Never ask for, or accept, cash donations
- What information will I be asked to provide?
When you sign-up to Team Green you will be asked for:
- Personal information such as a drivers licence to confirm your identity
- Bank or credit card information to allow St John to set up your monthly commitment to Team Green
The security and privacy of this information is very important to St John. Once the above information is provided to us it is transmitted securely in compliance with industry standards.
