I wish I hadn’t

A good cause:

Air New Zealand is a proud sponsor of Make-A-Wish® New Zealand which works to grant the cherished wishes of children with life threatening medical conditions.  Today they’re celebrating that partnership with the launch of a fun new way to feel better about life’s little slip ups and raise money for Make-A-Wish at the same time.

We all have moments in life that we’d rather forget – it could be overlooking a friend’s birthday, causing a fender bender, or sneaking that last piece of chocolate cake.  Whatever it is that makes you think “I wish I hadn’t … “, you can now balance the ledger by sharing your “wish” at www.iwishihadnt.co.nz and donating to Make-A-Wish at the same time.

Now we’re inviting all Air New Zealanders to get on board by confessing their misgivings and supporting this great cause.  If you need inspiration, you can go online and check out the moments others would rather forget – including some classics from high profile New Zealanders such as:

  • April Ieremia – I wish I hadn’t given him my phone number …
  • Richie McCaw – I wish I hadn’t told Ali…
  • Bevan Docherty – I wish I hadn’t run the lawn mower without any oil …
  • Phil Keoghan – I wish I hadn’t forgotten to put the lid on the blender …

Donations can also be made from your mobile phone – great for those feeling bad about sneaky texting while driving!  Just send your name and wish to 3181 to make an automatic $3 donation.

My wish was “I wish I hadn’t sent that fax”.  enjoy reading the other wishes, and hopefully make one yourself to help the Make A Wish Foundation.
