We're genuinely committed to our environment
For over 25 years, we’ve supported more than 130 impactful projects across 13 countries, ranging from preserving wetlands in the Riverland to protecting turtles in the Great Barrier Reef and aiding polar bear and orangutan rehabilitation. These initiatives reflect our dedication to causes that matter to both our communities and the environment. In 2021, we proudly partnered with Landcare Australia, committing to the annual planting of 100,000 native trees and shrubs. To date, we’ve contributed $7.5 million towards conservation efforts.
What we're doing
Partnering with Landcare Australia, we will plant 100,000 native trees and shrubs each year.
In 2021 we partnered with Landcare Australia to plant natives trees and shrubs, creating habitats for Australian wildlife and communities to enjoy while removing harmful carbon from the atmosphere for generations to come.
"Investing in healthy landscapes is important for our environment as trees and shrubs cycle the oxygen we breathe, filter the water we drink, provide habitat for iconic and endangered wildlife, and sequester carbon, all while supporting the wellbeing of local communities too."
Dr Shane Norrish, CEO at Landcare Australia
