We all have empty bottles and cans lying around—why not put them to work? That's the idea behind our Containers for Change setup, funded by a community grant in 2022.
Folks drop off their recyclables, quoting our code C10241772, and the refunds go straight to buying mulch, seedlings, or tools for the team. It's a simple way the community helps us keep the rivers clean without lifting a shovel themselves.
"Every container counts—it's funding that comes from the ground up."
Our member busy bees focus on revegetation, mulching, track maintenance, and practical river care along the Avon and Mortlock river edges.
