What We Sponsor

Our sponsorship programme supports our members, their families, and our farming communities in building meaningful connections for a stronger tomorrow.

What we are looking for:

  • Local groups/organisations or events in relation to our farming community
  • Requests that align with Ruralco's values and brand
  • The opportunity to support Ruralco Members and the organisations they are involved with
  • Give our staff the chance to be involved
  • Opportunity to promote our brand

Sorry we can't sponsor:

  • Individuals
  • Organisations outside New Zealand

Any sponsorship request of $1000 or more must be accompanied by a business plan and will be reviewed by the Group Manager - Marketing, Digital, and Communications.
