It’s a great time to support our work

This owlet-nightjar was seen at its cosy hollow in a broken off tree stag on Sunday’s Bird Walk led by Connecting Country’s Woodland Birds project coordinator, Tanya Loos . Picture by Peter Turner.
As it’s nearly the end of the 2016-17 financial year, you may wish to consider making a tax-deductible donation to Connecting Country. Connecting Country is a registered charity and is also listed on the national Register of Environmental Organisations (click here for more details). The easiest way you can donate is via the secure Give Now online donation platform. You can also find out more about other ways to donate on our webpage by clicking here.
While most of our activities are funded by grants from government programs or through philanthropic support, donations and volunteer contributions from our members and supporters allow our impact to go much further. It also gives us greater scope to undertake activities that don’t fall neatly into traditional grant programs, yet are still critically important for achieving our aims.
Although it doesn’t align with most local biological timelines, Connecting Country’s financial year matches most other organisations throughout the country – with one finishing on the 30 June and the next one starting on the 1 July. As such, we’ve commenced the process of compiling our annual report, and we hope that you’ll enjoy its stories of habitat restoration and nature appreciation across the Mount Alexander Shire. *Watch this space*
We’ve enjoyed bringing the aspirations of our community for improved local landscape health into fruition and look forward to continuing this work into 2017-18. We thank-you for your support.
