We are still in the setup phase — developing our wongari projects, monitoring framework, education materials, and applying for the necessary On‑Country permits to operate safely and appropriately. As we progress, we plan to create a structured volunteer pool to support this work.
At this stage, donations play a vital role in helping us move forward, build capacity, and complete the groundwork needed before we can welcome volunteers in the future.
-
Yes, we do. As a new organisation, in‑kind donations such as equipment, supplies, or professional services can make a big difference. Because we are still setting up our projects and On‑Country work, we assess in‑kind offers on a case‑by‑case basis to make sure they align with our needs and cultural responsibilities.
