Autumn Update
By Imogen | Partnerships Manager
Thanks to our ongoing donor support, we will be tackling some of the big ecological issues that affected Kangaroo Island after the 2020 bushfires. Throughout May. we will be lending a hand to help South Australia's bushfire affected landscapes recover through weed control of invasive Tasmanian bluegums on Kangaroo Island. Volunteers will join us on a trip from the mainland to the island. This is a fantastic opportunity to see how the native flora has recovered after the bushfires and do something positive for landholders that have already lost livestock and houses and now face yet another threat by the spread of weeds- and it's all thanks to our amazing supporters!

Summer Update
By Imogen Boman | Project Officer
Greetings from Conservation Volunteers Australia!
As we continue to deal with the challenges presented to us in 2020- first the bushfires that ravaged through some of Australia’s beautiful landscapes and then COVID-19 that has affected the world in so many ways- we are more grateful than ever for our incredible donors who have supported our efforts in these difficult times.
The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic has forced us to continue to suspend our in-person volunteering at Kangaroo Island, and we are now looking at new ways to support volunteering efforts in a safe way, while still delivering on the impact we are committed to achieving for species impacted by the fires.
“Our top priority is the well-being of our volunteers, staff, and the wider communities in which we live and operate. We’re implementing this change to enable social distancing, based on the latest advice from health authorities around the country.” – Phil Harrison, CEO, Conservation Volunteers Australia.
We remain hopeful that we will soon be able to turn our attention to the land once more and resume the crucial work for bushfire recovery.
THANK YOU, we appreciate and value your help so much and we look forward to your ongoing support into the future.
Until next time,
Stay safe.
