Donate to NSW National Parks

Donate now to protect our most precious habitats and wildlife

Help create the next great national park or lend a helping hand to vulnerable native animals like bristlebirds, rock-wallabies, and platypus.

Your tax-deductible donation will be invested in on-ground conservation actions that protect our unique landscapes, habitats and wildlife, many of which are found nowhere else on the planet.

Funds raised will go to:

• buying land for addition to the national park estate
• practical action to restore habitats and ecosystems and prevent extinctions
• initiatives to support Aboriginal management on Country
• world class science, research and monitoring.

Will you support our zero extinctions pledge?

NPWS is the first park agency in Australia to publicly set a zero extinctions target, and one of the first in the world.

Our goal is to prevent species extinctions in NSW national parks and restore populations.

The facts:

• More than 1 million species worldwide are threatened with extinction. 
• Australia has the worst mammal extinction rate on the planet.
• Around 84% of the approximately 900 threatened species in NSW are found in national parks. 
• Threats such as climate change, fire, and feral animals and weeds occur across all our tenures.

That’s why we’re delivering vital work to ensure national parks are a stronghold for threatened species.

And we’re making history along the way. We recently celebrated the 13th locally extinct mammal that has been returned to our national parks – a globally significant outcome.

But there’s more to do. Find out what we’re already doing. Your donation will make a difference.
