We have been partnering with the Australian Wildlife Conservancy (AWC) since 2007 to help create better homes for Australian wildlife. AWC is an independent, not-for-profit organisation dedicated to stemming the tide of extinctions and conserving all of Australia’s precious animal species and the habitats in which they live. Through our partnership, we have helped AWC fund key projects and raise public awareness of Australian species that are under threat of extinction.
By leveraging our technology and market reach, we have taken AWC’s conservation message to several million Optus customers around Australia, recruited hundreds of new donors for AWC and generated a significant level of donations. Most importantly, the partnership is demonstrating how we can make a real difference for Australian wildlife.

So far, Optus has helped the AWC fund key projects and raise public awareness of initiatives aimed at saving the Yellow-footed Rock Wallaby and Purple Crowned Fairy Wren from the threat of extinction, and the conservation of the wildlife and ecosystems of the Kalamurina Nature Reserve in Central Australia, Pungalina-Seven Emu in the NT, and Picaninny Plains in the Cape York Peninsular.
