Kennards Hire Celebrates Charity Success

Kennards Hire have wrapped up their annual charity initiative, ‘Kennards For Kids’ with better results this year than ever before. Over the two-month campaign Kennards Hire raised over $40,000 for KidsCan children’s charity, bettering last years result of $30,000.

For every hire made during September and October, Kennards Hire branches around New Zealand donated $2 to KidsCan, who use the money to provide food, clothing and basic health care in schools to enable kids to reach their full potential.

Jan Clark, GM of Fundraising and Marketing with KidsCan, couldn’t be happier with the results of the Kennards For Kids campaign in New Zealand. “It’s really an incredible outcome. This money will make life a whole lot easier for Kiwi kids who really need our help,” Jan explained. “KidsCan now supports 500 schools throughout New Zealand due to the generous support of businesses like Kennards Hire.”

Liz Ward, CEO of Kennards Hire, said it’s vital that kids are given every chance at success in life.“We believe that it’s all about breaking negative cycles early in a child’s life,” she stated. “Kennards For Kids was created in order to help youth in our communities realise their potential.”

While Kennards Hire’s main charity drive each year is Kennards For Kids, local branches are also involved in a range of independent community based projects, such as school and environmental causes.
