Te Akau Racing – Riding for the Disabled and the NZR General Trust Fund

Now through Te Akau Racing you can support Riding for the Disabled and the NZR General Trust Fund which supports industry participants in their time of need and it won’t cost you a cent!

 

 

 

 

We have partnered with Community Power, a new Social Enterprise company that shares it profits with the community.

We are supporting Riding for the Disabled and the General Trust Fund and we hope you will join us.

 

It won’t cost you a cent and if just 100 households join with us we could raise around  $10,000 a year to be shared equally between Riding for the Disabled and the Trust Fund.

100% of all fund raised will be shared between Riding for the Disabled and the NZR General Trust Fund which supports industry participants in their time of need.

Over the next 10 years that’s $100,000 that could be shared by these organisations.

About the NZR General Trust Fund

The NZR General Trust fund supports registered licensees when they become injured as a result of an accident while carrying out duties in their capacity as a licensee or suffer a serious illness.

 

How you can help fundraise for these great causes without it costing you.

Here’s how it works:

We all must buy our electricity from somewhere right? Well now if you buy from Community Power you get to donate a share of the profits they make from your account to be shared equally by Riding for the Disabled and the NZTR General Trust which is for the welfare of our industry participants.

 

 

  • Simply buy your electricity from Community Power
  • Pay the same you pay now (or less)
  • Then you get to donate a share of the profits Community Power makes from your account.
  • And and it won’t cost you a cent.

And the best part is your gift keeps on giving, year-after-year, its not a one off.

“I switched my account. I now pay less for my electricity and $XX a year is shared equally by Riding for the Disabled and the NZTR General Trust Fund..” 

“Its a great feeling seeing on each months bill that I am helping Riding for the Disabled our industry fund which supports industry participants in their time of need.”

Frequently Asked Questions:

I currently receive a prompt payment discount, will I still receive this?

YES

I receive a network company dividend, will I still receive this?

YES. The network dividend comes to you from the Network company regardless of which retailer you are with.

Will my power be interrupted if I switch to you?

NO, your electricity is never disconnected when switching between retailers.

Isn’t switching really hard?

NO, once you say “Yes please switch me” we do the rest. Other than proving us with a few details to set up your account thats all you need to do.

Where do you get your electricity from, do you burn coal?

Great question! We are very fortunate in New Zealand, approx 85% of our electricity is generated from renewable sources including Hydro, Geothermal and Wind.

Transpower manages the national grid and purchases electricity from the generators throughout the country according to the demand from consumers and the availability of water throughout New Zealand’s Hydro storage system.

When Hydro storage is low other forms of generation are brought on stream to meet the demand to keep the lights on.

Retailers don’t manage the source of electricity generation and nor can we guarantee to you where the electricity you use is generated from. What retailers can say is that most of the electricity you will use comes from renewable sources, its the same for all retailers.
