Time is flying by, and it has now been four weeks since we shared the exciting news about the potential to expand NGT’s Walker Swamp Restoration Reserve. But before we get to the numbers, let’s pause for a moment to take in the view!

The image below was taken just a few days ago, giving you a fresh perspective over the area we are looking to add to our existing reserve…

At last count, we’ve received 66 donations, combining to make a total of $88,670.

After matching, this means we have raised $177,340 for the land purchase, and are now over a third of the way towards our $500,000 target!

Walker Swamp Land Addition: Funding Target Progress (as at 29th May 2023)0%


To refresh your memory, here are the key details for this project:

Land size: 158 hectares (390 acres)
Funding target: $500,000
Settlement date: 30th June 2023

We still have an initial pool of funds available to enable donations to be matched, dollar for dollar, to double the impact of your donation and help us more rapidly reach the target.

Now that the countdown is on, with settlement set for the 30th June 2023, we would be grateful for your support!

All donations over $2 are fully tax-deductible.
