Rural Support Trust Bay of Plenty

 

The Pacific Toyota team is thrilled to provide the use of a Toyota Land Cruiser 70 to the Rural Support Trust Bay of Plenty. The new Land Cruiser 70 will significantly enhance the Trust’s ability to support farmers, growers, and rural families across the region. With rising demand for Rural Support Trust services, the vehicle will enable their Regional Coordinator, Jodie, to safely reach remote rural areas, transport equipment for wellbeing workshops and community events, and respond rapidly during adverse weather events.
