Why this Project is Important

Potential Long Term Impact

To ensure the survival of some of Australia’s most beloved marsupials, birds and reptiles and its ecosystem. There has been a National call to arms and Aussies from around the country are doing their bit and taking part in helping during this crisis!

Project Message

"If we can ward off most of the invasive pests and weeds from coming into the damaged area, the less trees we will have to plant. So, there is a clear and valid reason for seeking the money now."
- Paul Medici, American Rep, Australian Rainforest Foundation

Latest Update from the Field

Matching Opportunity! Give More, Get More!

By Paul Medici - Assistant Project Leader, November 10, 2009 03:34 PM

Dear Mates,

Thank you for your continued support of the Australian Rainforest Foundation. We wanted to let you know about an exciting opportunity that we are participating in through our partners, GlobalGiving.

When a donation is made to our project, Restore Australia's Forests after the Wildfire--www.globalgiving.com/2555--on GlobalGiving between November 10 and December 1, GlobalGiving will match that donation at 30%, 40% or 50%. And if we raise the most money or get the most donations, we are eligible for bonus awards up to $10,000. Matching funds are limited, so act quickly.

You can help us raise more money and earn the GlobalGiving prize money by spreading the word!

1) Pass along this email to your friends and families and ask them to tell others.
2) If you are planning to make a donation this year to the Australian Rainforest Foundation, please do so by going to our project on GlobalGiving--www.globalgiving.com/2555.


Thank you very much mates and I hope you have a happy and safe Holiday Season!
