Support SSAANZ

Your donation directly supports veterans, serving personnel, and their whānau across Aotearoa.

Every contribution — big or small — helps SSAANZ deliver essential services that strengthen wellbeing, connection, and community for those who have served our country.

As a veteran‑led charity, we understand the challenges faced during and after service.

Your support enables us to provide community events, membership support, and regional engagement that make a real difference in the lives of veterans and their families.

By donating to SSAANZ, you are helping build a stronger, more connected veteran community grounded in our kaupapa of Unity Through Adventure.

Where Your Donation Goes

Rest Stand Clear (RSC)

Fund a fully subsidised place for a veteran facing health, financial, or isolation challenges — removing cost as a barrier to the connection and support they need most. Growing RSC places is one of SSAANZ's key funding priorities as we scale.

Community Events & Outdoor Programmes

Support the hunting, fishing, tramping, and other outdoor events that build confidence, camaraderie, and connection for veterans and serving personnel across Aotearoa.

Whānau Support

Families can take part alongside their veteran or serving member at SSAANZ events, sharing in the same wellbeing, skills, and community benefits — because support for those who served extends to those who stand beside them.

Regional Engagement

Enable SSAANZ to activate local networks, support regional leads, and ensure veterans have access to community and support close to home.
