🐨♻️ HELP US SAVE THE 10c! 💚

A few hours of your time could make a big difference for our koalas!

The NSW Touch Football State Cup is returning to Port Macquarie this December, and we’re calling on our wonderful community to lend a hand!

Thanks to the efforts of Brian and his team at Closed Loop, along with our volunteers, an incredible $1,574 was raised for the Koala Hospital in 2024 through Return and Earn.

Last year, we raised $1,134, but with so many bottles and cans to sort, we simply didn’t have enough helping hands to collect them all.
This year, we’d love to do even better! 💚

We’re looking for volunteers to help sort bottles and cans, keeping them out of landfill while raising much-needed funds for our koalas.

📅 Saturday 5 & Sunday 6 December
📍 Port Macquarie Regional Stadium
⏰ Afternoon shifts, just 2 hours!

Gloves and snacks provided! Just bring a hat, water bottle and closed shoes.

🙋 Can you spare a couple of hours?
Text Brian on 0415 114 730 to register your interest.

Every bottle counts. Every volunteer matters. And every dollar raised goes directly to the Koala Hospital. 🐨💚
Please share and help us make 2026 our biggest year yet!

💚 JAN’S DAY | 28 OCTOBER 🐨

Today, we remember Maria River Road Jan, whose passing two years ago inspired a day dedicated to honouring all the koalas we have loved, cared for and sadly lost.

Every koala who comes into our care has a story. Some return to the wild, while others, despite every effort, never get that chance.

Behind every rescue, every treatment and every moment of comfort are extraordinary people who give so much of themselves.
Our dedicated carers, volunteers, veterinary teams and everyone working tirelessly behind the scenes. They celebrate every small victory, spend countless hours providing care and feel the heartbreak when a koala cannot be saved.

Because to those who care for them, they are never just another koala. Each one is an individual, each life matters, and each loss is deeply felt.

Today, we honour Jan and every koala who is no longer with us. We also honour the compassion, dedication and love of the people who were there for them when they needed it most.
Gone, but never forgotten. 💚

Their memory strengthens our commitment to protecting koalas and securing a future for generations to come.
