FROM EVERY GIFT BASKET SOLD, WE DONATE ONE KOALA TREE TO BANGALOW KOALAS INC. At Gifts For The Planet we are passionate about giving back. One of the projects we have chosen to support is creating a wildlife corridor in Northern NSW, Byron Bay Shire and surrounds. Bangalow Koalas Inc. Creating a Wildlife Corridor project goal is to create a Koala wildlife corridor connecting existing sections of Koala habitat and food trees on the western side of Bangalow. This involves planting along the existing Koala corridor to enhance and expand current habitat creating a connection to new corridors, thereby encouraging Koalas out of urban areas away from threats to dog attacks and car strikes. Byron Shire Council has advised that this Koala population may carry a gene pool to help the species survive into the future. Bangalow Koalas Inc. is a registered Environmental Organisation with DGR status, and not-for-profit registered charity that is set up to educate, involve and inspire our community to help us protect and save our koalas.
