Jucy Gives
JUCY Gives is our initiative to make sure JUCY puts a little bit back into the communities and environments that our customers travel to.
Make a difference when you travel greener with JUCY X Million Metres
JUCY has partnered with Million Metres, an online fundraising platform for restoring the banks of New Zealand's waterways.
Million Metres aims to raise funds to restore the nation's rivers, streams, lakes and wetlands with native plants and trees. We work with businesses, philanthropic organisations, community and iwi/hapū groups, and farmers to direct resources to waterway restoration projects at scale.
Our customers can contribute to this waterway restoration initiative and help mitigate the carbon emissions produced on JUCY road trips.
How can you make a difference?
We’re all crazy about epic adventures and traveling with a greener conscience is not only more immersive but also the way to go!
Long-term effects of harmful carbon emissions can be overwhelming, and we face an emergency that requires us to act now before it is too late. Join us in going greener as we support this great cause that counteracts the harmful effects caused by carbon footprints on the environment.
You can add a donation while booking your JUCY car rental or campervan hire on our website or talk to our friendly crew on call or even when you’re at one of our branches to pick-up your JUCY rental.
Donate-a-day
As part of our JUCY Gives programme, we also give our JUCY Crew the opportunity every year to “donate-a-day”, so they can give their time to a cause of their choice. Some of the Crew in New Zealand will continue to support the Million Metres scheme in planting days (there’s a lot of care that goes into making sure all the trees we planted survive!) and others can choose their own charity they want to support. As long as we’re supporting the communities or environments that our customers travel to, we’re happy! Read what some of our JUCY Crew have got up to on their Donate-A-Day below:

How can you make a difference?
At JUCY we believe adventures should leave memories, not a heavy footprint. That’s why we’re taking real steps to reduce our impact on the planet, so future roadies can enjoy it too. We’re committing to reducing our emissions by 4.2% per year to meet the 1.5c degree target set under the Paris agreement as part of our commitment to a cleaner, greener future.
We’ve done the work behind the scenes to figure out where our emissions come from, and we’re already making moves to reduce them. Think smarter operations, lighter impact, and still the same unforgettable JUCY experiences you know and love. We’re proud members of the Toitū carbonreduce programme, supporting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and helping foster a culture of environmental responsibility across the tourism landscape.
