BlackmanSpargo Rural Law Sponsorships

We have been supporting the New Zealand Dairy Industry Awards since 2003.  We sponsor the Auckland/Hauraki, Waikato, Bay of Plenty and Central Plateau districts.

The New Zealand Dairy Industry Awards promote and showcase excellence across the whole spectrum of the dairy industry, helping to lift on-farm performance and develop future leaders.

Promotion of the awards help the public become more aware of, and understand, the importance of the dairy industry.

In 2016 we commenced sponsorship of the Bay of Plenty Young Fruit Grower of the Year Competition.

This competition presents some of the Bay of Plenty’s brightest young fruit growers.

It gives these future leaders the opportunity to display their horticulture skills in a fast-paced competitive environment.

BlackmanSpargo are proud to support “Meat the Need”.

A charity designed to supply much needed meat to City Missions, food banks and kiwi families in need.

Meat is donated by farmers, processed, packed and delivered to those most in need.

BlackmanSpargo is proud to support the Geyser Community Foundation promoting giving for the benefit of local charities, community groups and our future generations.

BlackmanSpargo assists the Geyser Community Foundation with annual running costs and offers clients free updates to their Wills to include a gift to the local community through the foundation.  Chris Spargo previously served as a trustee of the Geyser Community Foundation.

Annual sponsors of Reporoa Squash Rackets Club Farmers’ Squash Club Tournament.

Our support of the mobile phone application enables it to be provided to the schools for free and helps as a communication tool for the family and the school.

We provide pro bono legal services to the Empowered Learning Trust whose vision is to remove barriers to learning and help young people reach their full potential within the rural community.

We’re very proud to sponsor the Greenlea Rescue Helicopter for the Central Plateau region – providing 24 hour emergency service 365 days of the year.

Previous sponsors of the BayTrust Rescue Helicopter, which is no longer in service, but a BIG thanks to the helicopter crew involved in the rescue of our colleague, Laura Stuart, who had a serious mountain bike accident in Whakarewarewa Forest in February 2016.
