One of the largest and most successful Landcare groups in Australia, Big Scrub Landcare has the mission of promoting, facilitating and undertaking long-term restoration and ongoing care of critically endangered lowland subtropical rainforest.

The Saving our Species co-investment project restores and facilitates the recovery of important remnants of endangered lowland subtropical rainforest in the Big Scrub region, improving the habitat and survival of the many landscape-managed threatened species that depend on it.

As the charity partner of Australia’s national parks, the Foundation for National Parks and Wildlife is on a mission to protect Australia’s ecosystems and native species for generations to come. The Foundation for National Parks and Wildlife (FNPW) is working on 3 co-investment projects with their various partners.

In north-east New South Wales, FNPW has joined with the Border Ranges Alliance to deliver their ‘Trails for Tails’ Saving our Species (SoS) co-investment project, which focuses on learning more about and conserving the shy and wary Albert’s lyrebird and other threatened bird species.

FNPW is also working with the Kanangra–Boyd to Wyangala Link (K2W) Conservation Partnership. This SoS co-investment project will add another district to the successful K2W Link program. While this project targets the squirrel glider, restoring the K2W natural landscape corridor is vital to the long-term survival of many native Great Eastern Ranges threatened species.

In partnership with BirdLife Australia, FNPW’s third SoS co-investment project is Nectar-Lovers. This project aims to restore food sources and habitat connectivity for threatened nectar feeding bird species in the South West Slopes region of southern New South Wales.

With a vision of ‘healthy, productive landscapes where people and nature thrive’, Greening Australia is an independent not-for-profit organisation operating around the country.

Greening Australia’s Great Southern Landscapes Program aims to restore 300,000 hectares and establish 450 million Indigenous plants by 2030. Their Saving our Species co-investment project focuses on restoring and enhancing the superb parrot’s habitat in the Riverina region of south-west New South Wales.

Molonglo Conservation Group facilitates strategic collaborative partnerships and programs across the southern tablelands of the Australian Capital Territory and New South Wales.

With a vision of facilitating a healthy, resilient and productive landscape, they connect the region’s land management stakeholders and partners to build knowledge, stakeholder capability and environmental outcomes.

This Saving our Species co-investment project aims to extend and maintain habitat for the pink-tailed worm lizard and conserve box-gum woodland in southern New South Wales.

Your contribution will help the project reach more landholders, protect more habitat and increase the opportunities for everyone in the community to get involved.
