What makes New Zealanders think “I wish I hadn’t…”

We’ve all done things we wish we hadn’t – now there’s an easy way to put things right. Air New Zealand is teaming up with children’s charity Make-A-Wish® New Zealand to give people a chance to make up for life’s little mistakes and help a great cause.

We all have moments in life that we’d rather forget – it could be overlooking a friend’s birthday, causing a fender bender, or sneaking that last piece of chocolate. Whatever it is that makes you think “I wish I hadn’t … “, you can now balance the ledger by sharing your “wish” at www.iwishihadnt.co.nz and donate to Make-A-Wish at the same time.

Make-A-Wish is a charity partner of Air New Zealand. It works to grant the cherished wishes of children with life threatening medical conditions. So by sharing your “I wish I hadn’t” moment you’re helping make these special dreams come true.

You can also check out the moments that others would rather forget – including some classics from high profile New Zealanders such as:

“I wish I hadn't given those drums to Max!”
Mils Muliaina – All Black

“I wish l hadn't delivered those letters myself"
Hon Chris Carter MP, Te Atatu – former Labour Cabinet Minister
