AWC
providing new hope for Australia's wildlife
Australian Wildlife Conservancy is the largest private owner and manager of land for conservation in Australia, protecting endangered wildlife across more than 6.5 million hectares in iconic regions such as the Kimberley, Cape York, Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre and the Top End. Recognising that ‘business as usual’ for conservation in Australia will mean additional extinctions, AWC is developing and implementing a new model for conservation.

Give hope to Australia’s wildlife this Christmas
Despite the challenges of Covid-19, AWC’s team of dedicated field ecologists and land managers are continuing to deliver some of Australia’s most ambitious and important conservation projects.
Please give our wildlife something to celebrate this Christmas and New Year by making a tax deductible donation to support one of our priority projects.
The Curramore Challenge
We have just 6 weeks to raise $550,000 to secure a rare opportunity to expand our Curramore Wildlife Sanctuary, extending our conservation footprint in the Blackall Ranges by 15%.
Your gift will be doubled!
100% of every donation you make towards this project will be matched until our goal is reached.
