Help support Connecting Country
Posted on 6 June, 2019 by Frances
Community are at the heart of all we do. We support Landcarers and help landholders revegetate and protect bushland. We monitor local plants and animals, and engage people to raise awareness about our special local environment. We empower people to take action and connect with their landscape.
In recent years, Connecting Country has adapted to an environment where less funding is available. We draw on a patchwork of grants to achieve a lot with a little. This isn’t always easy. We wouldn’t exist without our generous supporters and volunteers, and are constantly on the lookout for ways to make our limited resources go further.
Connecting Country chooses to make our membership free, because we welcome anyone and everyone to join us! However, if you’ve enjoyed being part of our story, or would like to further support our work, you may like to make a financial contribution.
With the end of the financial year approaching fast, it’s a good time for donations. Connecting Country is a registered charity with Deductible Gift Recipient Status. Donations of $2 and over are tax deductible.
The easiest way to donate is online via Givenow: click here

Your gift will help safeguard the future of Connecting Country, directly support practical on-ground actions for our local environment, and contribute to protecting and restoring the local landscape we all love.
To each of the many people who have already contributed, we express our deepest thanks.
Don’t you think it is time to have a membership fee? I do not know of any group you can join that does not have a membership fee. I belong to a group whose membership fee is $10.00 and no one thinks twice about paying this and most of the members are on a pension.
Hi Jill
Thanks for your feedback. Connecting Country’s committee of management has always maintained a policy of free membership. Your comment will be forwarded to the committee for consideration in their next review.
