Emergency & Disaster Relief
When natural disasters unfold, RRT steps in to serve emergency services with quality food and refreshments, and provide tangible support to those affected.
Help us make a differenceWhen catastrophe’s take place, the Rapid Relief Team (RRT) is equipped to step in at a moments notice, and support emergency services with quality food and refreshments, and provide tangible support to those affected.
Beneath our distinctive tents, people from all walks of life seek shelter and refreshment in times of crisis. Whatever the crisis may be, RRT is humbled to support frontline heroes as they work tirelessly to overcome the situation at hand, and those who have been directly impacted by the disaster.
2019 will be remembered by RRT NZ’s support of the Pigeon Valley fires, which were New Zealand’s largest forest fire in 64 years. At it’s peak, 150 firefighters and 22 helicopters were tackling the fire, becoming NZ’s largest aerial firefight in history. RRT served 2,300 meals and distributed 1,000 water bottles over four days before handing over to the New Zealand Army. The RRT operation saw 1,100 hours worked by 120 volunteers.
