Last Friday, Shaw and Partners New Zealand and Shaw and Partners Financial Services came together for the Gotcha4Life Foundation's annual 9-Hour Corporate Row, uniting teams across both countries in support of mental fitness and su***de prevention.
Across New Zealand, our teams rowed more than 588 kilometres and raised $20,842, an incredible result made possible by the collective efforts of our people, clients, families, friends, and wider communities.
This year, Shaw and Partners has donated more than $415,000 to Gotcha4Life through our involvement in the 9-Hour Corporate Row and the 24-Hour Row. This includes the firm's $100,000 Major Partner contribution to the 24-Hour Row, together with more than $315,000 raised through the 9-Hour Corporate Row from individual staff fundraising efforts and generous dollar matching by our CEO and Board.
Funds raised will support Gotcha4Life's important work, including its Mentally Fit Schools initiative, a comprehensive programme helping students, teachers, parents and carers build the skills and confidence to better manage their mental fitness.
We are immensely proud to support Gotcha4Life and grateful to everyone who rowed, volunteered, donated, and supported the event. This outstanding result would not have been possible without the generosity, dedication, and support of so many people across both sides of the Tasman.
Have fun. Live life. Give back.
