Suncorp, owner of Asteron Life, has donated $200,000 to the Government’s Cyclone Gabrielle Appeal Fund to support the recovery efforts in communities across the North Island.
Suncorp Group CEO Steve Johnston announced the donation in Auckland on Monday 6 March, where he is visiting impacted customers and assessing the situation with Suncorp New Zealand CEO, Jimmy Higgins.
“Having met with customers who have had their lives turned upside down by the recent weather events, I know what an incredibly challenging and emotional time this is for many people,” Johnston said.
“We have people across both New Zealand and Australia dedicated to the recovery and have flown in additional claims specialists and assessors to support the local team.”
Suncorp has received more than 22,000 claims related to the cyclone.
