ReSport Charitable Trust welcomes donations from anywhere. Whether it's new or gently used sports gear, retired sports uniforms, sports memorabilia, or financial contributions, your support empowers Northlanders to play, thrive, and grow.
ReSport gives every piece of sports gear a purpose. New or gently used items go straight to schools, sports clubs, organisations, groups, and communities in need. When they’re beyond repair, we recycle them responsibly.
Through our partnership with CEBEC, retired sports uniforms become insulation and bedding, while end-of-life gear becomes low-emission fuel and cement at Golden Bay Cement. Together, we’re closing the loop turning waste into warmth and energy, not landfill.

Every effort, big or small, contributes to breaking down barriers and creating opportunities for all Northlanders to engage in sports and recreation. No gear to donate? You can still make a difference! Host a fundraiser, volunteer your time, or organise a community sports gear drive. Every contribution helps us empower Northlanders to play, thrive, and connect.
ReSport proudly celebrates Fulton Hogan as our first annual corporate sponsor to step up as a Community Champion. This milestone reflects a powerful alignment of values—strengthening communities, reducing waste through sustainable practices, and creating equitable opportunities for young people to thrive through sport.
We’re proud to align with a team committed to a community-led initiative making real impact across Northland. Their support enables us to maintain our pātaka (gear hubs)—including a new installation at their Whangārei site—ensuring more tamariki can play, more whānau are supported, and generosity continues to meet need.
Together, we are proving what’s possible when business and community come together for lasting impact.
If your organisation is looking to invest in authentic community impact, we’d love to talk—get in touch today 0800-000-626.
ReSport Charitable Trust is successfully redistributing preloved sports gear to Northlanders in need, while reducing the impact of textile and sport gear waste in landfill.
