"St John really values the ongoing support of ASB. All money raised from the toy ambulances will go towards buying a new lifesaving ambulance for New Zealand communities. A fully equipped ambulance costs more than $200,000 and we couldn't fund them without our generous supporters and partners such as ASB," he said.
The toy ambulances are the latest initiative between ASB and St John, who have had a longstanding partnership since 2008.
ASB Head of Community and Sponsorship Mark Graham was looking forward to seeing the toy ambulances in ASB branches throughout the country.
"ASB hopes New Zealanders take to the St John toy ambulance campaign with enthusiasm. Not only is it a great way to demonstrate support for St John, but Kiwis can look forward to seeing a brand new ambulance on the road and know they played a part in making that happen," he said.
The St John toy ambulances will be available at ASB branches nationally, from ASB True Rewards and www.asb.co.nz/stjohn from November 16 2015.
