The Predator Free 2050 mission
Imagine an Aotearoa New Zealand where our native wildlife are free to once again flourish. A landscape filled with birdsong and a revitalised ecosystem supporting our unique flora and fauna. It's a beautiful vision, isn't it?
Community groups across Aotearoa are taking up the challenge of trapping pests in their local area. They're making a huge impact.
The problem? They struggle to get funding for all the traps they need. They need more traps.
How can you help? Give a Trap
Many of us want to do our bit to support the Predator Free 2050 mission, but we don't know how.
Give a Trap was established to connect people that want to help with the people that need it.
The question is, do you give a trap?
Want to give a trap as a gift?
We can help. You can Give a Trap on behalf of someone else. We'll send you a personalised gift e-certificate with the details of your donation which you can print off or email on to the person you would like to gift it to.
How Give a Trap® works
Use our platform to find a group near you that needs support. Give a trap to the group and we'll organise the supply and delivery of the trap directly to the group. We'll keep an eye on the process to ensure everything goes smoothly. Once the group receive your gift, they'll put it to work and may send you updates on their progress through our platform.
Who is behind Give a Trap?
Give a Trap was established by Penny Willocks' family and friends to support her vision for a predator-free Aotearoa. The Give a Trap Charitable Trust was formed in 2026 to expand Penny's vision and create an even greater impact. Read more about how one woman's vision has sparked the Give a Trap movement.
