Help keep the Reef great and hold a fundraiser for the Great Barrier Reef Foundation
The Great Barrier Reef is beautiful, diverse and under threat. Right now, it’s facing enormous challenges: rising ocean temperatures that cause coral bleaching; poor water quality due to land run-off; outbreaks of coral-destroying crown-of-thorns starfish. There is no one solution to helping the Reef overcome these and other challenges.
It will take all of us, working together, to give our global treasure the best chance of a bright future. Whether you’re an individual, community group, school or class group, organisation large or small, or a group of like-minded friends, it’s easy to get started. Every amount raised for the Reef helps.
