Safeguarding the future of threatened Australian plants

Australian National Botanic Gardens

Thank you for supporting the Australian National Botanic Gardens (ANBG) to look after our threatened (and most at risk) native plant species.

The ANBG is home to the world’s most comprehensive living collection of Australian plants. World-class research unlocking new knowledge on Australia’s rarest plant species is an everyday part of work at the Gardens. The expert horticulturalists and scientists secure wild specimens and undertake critical propagation and cultivation work which helps them understand what each species needs to survive.

With changing climates and increasing episodes of extreme weather events, some wild populations of plants are becoming locally extinct. Your support for saving an important part of Australia’s natural capital at the ANBG is more important than ever before.

This is an ongoing project, so if you wish to donate you can do so below. Every donation counts towards safeguarding our threatened (and most at risk) native plant species.

Public Statement from The National Parks Conservation Trust

To our Donors, Supporters and Partners,

After 6 years of supporting transformational projects in and around Australia’s six Commonwealth national parks, 60 marine parks and the Australian National Botanic Gardens, The National Parks Conservation Trust we will be ceasing operations on June 30, 2025.

This was not an easy decision. It comes after a thorough review of our mission, impact and sustainability in today’s philanthropic landscape. We are deeply proud of what we have achieved together.

We want to express our deepest gratitude for your donations and your thoughtful participation, which has made our work possible.

While The National Parks Conservation Trust will no longer operate as an organisation, our mission continues through the people and communities we’ve worked with across the Commonwealth national parks and marine parks.

As we wind down, we are committed to a responsible closure: we are ensuring all remaining funds and assets are distributed in line with our Deed and charitable purpose. Rest assured all current projects underway will be seen through to completion by Parks Australia. Honoring these commitments is a key priority for us during this period.

Thank you for being part of our journey. Together, we’ve made a difference to the conservation of Commonwealth national parks and marine parks.

If you have any enquiries, please contact [email protected].

With deep appreciation,
Chair, Rhondda Dickson and all the Trustees
