Wandiyali Restoration Trust
Low
Annual Giving
$25K
Grant Range
$1K – $100K
Tips for Applicants
Focus applications on measurable biodiversity outcomes for critically endangered species and ecosystems in NSW/ACT. Emphasise how projects align with the trust's goal of establishing self-sustaining populations and ecosystem restoration rather than general environmental education or advocacy.
Giving Philosophy
The trust prioritises projects that directly contribute to protecting critically endangered ecological communities and restoring biodiversity on private land. It values evidence-based conservation work that creates self-sustaining ecosystems and supports the reintroduction of endemic species. Grants appear to support both direct conservation activities and the exchange of species populations between restoration programs.
