We love nature! So we're getting active in nature to help protect Australia's iconic wildlife.
Did you know that over 80% of Australia's animals are found nowhere else other than in our very own big backyard? Sadly, 619 of these Australian animals are threatened species, losing their homes to habitat destruction and climate change every single day. The Sloane's Froglet, the Freckled Duck, the Gang-Gang Cockatoo, and the Murray Cod are a few examples of endangered species in the Albury Wodonga region.
In May 2024, we'll be taking on the Australia's Biggest Bushwalk challenge and raising funds to help bring our beloved animals back from the brink.
