What is my role in Better?
“I’m the CEO at Better. What is my role about? I would say, that’s almost like being a father. Our company is like a family, and my role here is to make sure that the family is strong and shares the same values. Every family needs love and attention. But to grow stronger, this family also needs a direction. And someone who takes care. And that’s what I love the most, to take care and see how my family grows and help other to grow.”

Keeping it Kiwi-green
Trees that Count is an awesome initiative that has planted over 40 million native trees across New Zealand since 2016. That’s right: over 40 million! We just had to get involved and do our bit to help this great group of people combat climate change and support the beautiful country we live in.
So, in 2021 we committed to supporting our green-fingered friends at Trees that Count by funding the planting of 10,000 native trees every year. In fact, for every loan we settle, another tree gets planted. That’s better.
What’s your favourite native New Zealand tree? Kauri, Nīkau, Tītoki, Tirowhārangi, Tawapou… So many it’s impossible to choose, right? Check out the great work of the team at Trees that Count click here.

Sustainable seas for a better future
Surrounded by water, as Kiwis the sea holds a special place in our hearts. Just breathing in that salty sea air has a magical effect - calming, energising, rejuvenating. But our friend, the deep blue, has long been in trouble, which is where our friends at Legasea come in....
LegaSea is a non-profit organisation dedicated to restoring the abundance, biodiversity and health of New Zealand’s marine environment. Specifically, this passionate group of people are committed to minimising the environmental impact of fishing, and building public support for fisheries management reforms.
In 2020, the better team got on board and became a Gold Partner to this crucial cause. Like to check it out? Click here for more.
