Australia’s wildlife is in peril. From devastating bushfires and floods, accelerating habitat loss,  impact collisions on roads, feral pest and domestic pet attacks and deadly disease, our native animals face growing threats — but together, we can change their future.

Our parent charity, Wildlife Recovery Australia, is a DGR-1 charity reimagining wildlife care and conservation. Through world-class veterinary and rehabilitation, research, training, innovation and education, we are restoring health, hope and resilience to species that define our nation.

Our major donors and philanthropic partners are the visionaries who make this transformation possible. Your generosity funds life-saving care, drives scientific discovery, and builds the foundations of a more sustainable future for Australian wildlife.

When you make a major gift, you become part of an enduring legacy — one that transcends generations. Your support can:

• Empower expert teams and state-of-the-art hospitals to relieve suffering and provide critical treatment and rehabilitation for native animals in crisis.

• Fund research and innovation that informs breakthroughs in wildlife medicine and conservation of ecosystems.

• Expand and strengthen our recovery centres, creating sanctuaries for healing, recovery, and release.

• Inspire and educate future generations of wildlife veterinarians to protect the native animals that are part of our national identity.

• Sustain the core of our mission, ensuring we can respond swiftly, compassionately and effectively — whenever wildlife needs us most.

We work in partnership with philanthropists, family offices, private and public ancillary funds, foundations and trusts to align your values with tangible, transformative outcomes. Every gift is directed to create the greatest possible impact — for wildlife, for ecosystems, and for the Australia we leave behind.

Our structured philanthropy program is managed in partnership with philanthropic professional fund managers ensuring all major gifts are managed with the highest degree of governance to have real impact.

As a valued supporter, you’ll be welcomed into our community of changemakers. You’ll see the impact of your generosity is making — through exclusive updates, public relations, events, exclusive invitations and opportunities to witness recovery in action.

Together, we can build a living legacy — a future where Australia’s wildlife not only survives, but thrives.
