"If you think you are too small to make a difference, you have never spent the night in a tent with a mosquito."
African Proverb.
Conservation
At WildArt, we believe that we can all make a big difference no matter how small and insignificant we think we are. Conservation isn't something that needs to involve huge sums of money, or hours of dedicated time - small inputs from all of us can make an enormous impact if co-ordinated and targeted effectively.
Each year, WildArt will choose a grass-roots conservation project to support through donations made by you, a proportion of annual WildArt Awards profits made from entry fees and the sales of merchandise available in the shop on this website. We chose projects where modest amounts of money can make a huge difference.
This year, we have chosen to support Perth NRM which comprises a not-for-profit environmental organisation striving to help Western Australia’s south-west endangered cockatoos. A proportion of the income derived from entry fees and merchandise sales through this website will be donated to this organisation and the great work they do. But they would love to have your direct support too from personal donations.
Full details on this conservation effort and a direct donation link to this project can be found by clicking the link below.
Conservation relies on us all taking action in whatever way we can, however small - Be the Mosquito!
Baudin's Black Cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus baudinii) is just one of the species that is under pressure through habitat loss, and one that can be helped through donations to Perth NRM. Click the links above top learn more and to donate directly.
