Help us find the funding that keeps this reserve thriving.
Pouteria runs entirely on volunteer effort and external funding. Grants and donations pay for the contractor work that breaks the back of the hardest tasks — giving our volunteers a fighting chance on the ground. The more we can raise, the more we can do.
Fundraising for a conservation charity requires creativity, persistence and a genuine understanding of what motivates donors and grant-making bodies. If you have that experience and the time and energy to contribute, we would love to hear from you.
The tūtūkiwi orchid in this photo was found growing quietly in the upper reaches of the reserve — a small but beautiful sign that the forest is responding to our work. This is what your fundraising efforts help protect.
