Hospice Southland’s Raise a Calf for Hospice campaign is about raising money to support our community, one calf at a time. All proceeds that are raised stay in the Southland and Wakatipu region to enable Hospice to provide care at no cost.
How does it work?
Livestock
You can either pledge a calf and when they are sold, the sale price is donated to Hospice Southland. All you need to do is commit to rearing a calf until they are weaned.
Virtual
Alternatively, you can choose to donate a virtual calf with a one-off donation of $350.

How to get your calf to sale?
- We will provide you with a Hospice ear tag.
- You’ll need to tag your calf with your own EID as well as a Hospice ear tag so that we can easily identify which calf you are donating.
- In early December, we’ll contact you to advise when your calf will be collected from your farm and transferred to the Lorneville Sale Yards.
- Sale date is usually early December – to be confirmed.
- The calf you nominate can be either a Beef or Beef Cross Friesian breed.
