2025 Kiwi Firefighters Calendar Featuring 12 Firefighters with Chiseled Bodies & Rugged Good Looks - All Profits Donated to Movember Foundation New Zealand

• The Kiwi Firefighters Calendar features 12 current serving firefighters from around New Zealand baring (almost) all to raise awareness of men's mental health and well-being, suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer.
• The Kiwi Firefighters Calendar aims to raise funds for the Movember foundation New Zealand. Movember fund many men's health programmes around the world including the Whanaungatanga Programme in New Zealand designed to improve firefighter mental well-being.
• The 2024 Kiwi Firefighters Calendar raised over $50,000 for Movember and were recognised by Movember for our outstanding effort with a "MO" Award for Remarkable Workplace.
• A common perception is that firefighters are almost hero-like with no weaknesses and no fear. However, the reality is firefighters are vulnerable to trauma, anxiety and stress just like everybody else.
• A key message of this calendar is firefighters are resilient but we are not invincible. For most of the incidents we attend most of the time we will be fine, especially if we use healthy coping mechanisms. However, sometimes a particular incident or a combination of organisational and life stresses can overwhelm even the most resilient people. If this happens we should know its OK and necessary to reach out for help.
• A key part of mental and physical well-being is being physically active. They use their imagery of real firefighters in our calendar to showcase the link between being physically active and improved mental and physical health.
