Become a Voice of the Rainforest
Australia’s subtropical rainforests urgently need your help
The Big Scrub rainforest, and its ancient flora and fauna, need your help to survive. For as little as a dollar a day ($30 per month), you can become a Voice of the Rainforest and help us protect critically endangered subtropical rainforest and its many threatened species.
Our community of Voice of the Rainforest supporters help us plan for the long-term and make real change. As a member of this community, we connect you with the rainforest and the cause through exclusive benefits, tours and events.
We’re proud to be endorsed as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR). Your donations of $2 or more can be claimed as a tax deduction.
By supporting us you help to:
Protect ancient, biodiverse rainforest
We care for 40 precious rainforest remnants
Create new rainforest
Over 3 million trees planted = 700 hectares of new rainforest and counting!
Protect threatened flora and fauna
Almost 100 species of the Big Scrub are threatened with extinction
Fund Science Saving Rainforests
Our world-first genetic rescue program for trees, making subtropical rainforests more resilient to climate change
Without your support the Big Scrub, and Australia’s other subtropical rainforests, will slowly fade away.

Science Saving Rainforests
Our ground-breaking Science Saving Rainforests program analyses the genomes of 60 species occurring in critically endangered lowland subtropical rainforest based on DNA sequencing of more than 10,000 leaf samples.
These genome analyses will inform the establishment of a multi-species living seed bank plantation that will produce planting stock with optimal genetic diversity for restoration plantings to help save from extinction our critically endangered lowland subtropical rainforest and its threatened species.
