Ted E Bare is helping to Save Our Koalas!

Dave with Retired Ted E Bare for Auction

Wow – David Strassman is SO NICE and he LOVES our koalas!  He has Donated a Stage Used TED E BARE to help save our Koalas!

I was lucky enough to meet Mr Strassman last year when he was on tour.  I LOVE Ted E Bare and my parents took me to see him live in Ipswich.

Mr Strassman was very supportive of my fundraising to help our wildlife. He was impressed with my personal goal of raising $100K for conservation.  So when he arrived back in Australia for his tour in Australia  I wrote and asked if he would like to help us find some Koalas in the Wild?

He was wonderful and replied to my email – his first question was “How much money have you raised now?”  He was really please when I told him over $70,000!  Then I asked if he would like to find some wild koalas,  he very quickly replied “Yes lets track down some koalas!”

Mr Strassman has so much knowledge of our wildlife – he knew more facts about birds and koalas than me!  Yikes!

Mr Strassman then did something amazing, he offered to help me reach my goal of $100K by donating a Stage Used Ted E Bare for the charity of my choice!

I chose to help the  Queensland Koala Crusaders Inc with the funds raised from this auction.  The Queensland Koala Crusaders Inc are working with local and state government to help them purchase suitable land within the Sunshine Coast region to keep our koala population there.  Sadly we will loose these guys in less than 10 years if we don’t stop taking their homes away from them.  The other  2 big threats to our koalas are Dog Attacks and Hit By Cars.

I am so excited.  Please share the link of the Auction for everyone to see.  We are hoping to make over $10,000.00 so fingers crossed.

I hope to see many of my friends at the Sunshine Coast shows!  Please support Ted E Bare Auction and show Mr Strassman that we love our wildlife just as much as he does.

Wildlife Emergency’s Car Rally a fundraiser for Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital Sunday the 18th of May 2014!

cancelled-390x250Sadly the Wildlife Emergency Car Rally a fundraiser for Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital has been cancelled due to the cost of insurance for this event.

All money has been refunded and we are currently contacting our sponsors and companies that have donated prizes.

Don’t worry though – Tegan has had fantastic support.  A Fun Family Night at Aussie World is already underway to help ease the pain of missing out on the Car Rally.

Tegan is determined to reach her personal goal of raising $100,000.00 for conservation before she leaves high school.

Please watch this page or like www.facebook.com/wildlifeemergency to keep up with all of Tegan’s news.

Thank you

Kathy and Wayne Lather

Tegan Lather has won the Young Citizen of the Year 2014 Australia Day Award

with mayor on stage

On Thursday the 23rd of January 2014 Tegan was announced as the Winner of  the Young Citizen of the Year 2014 Australia Day Award for the Moreton Bay Region.

As you can imagine Tegan was over the moon with the recognition she has received by her peers.  Tegan was told by the Mayor Councillor Allan Sutherland that the judging panel voted unanimously for Tegan after reading her story.  They were amazed that in just 3 short years Tegan has raised over $70,000.00 for conservation as well her other projects, such as clean up Australia Day sites, towel drives, out of date medicine drives and locating groups to help in knitting Possum and Kangaroo Pouches for the injured Wildlife in and outside of the Moreton Bay Region.  They were very happy to also hear that Tegan did well in School and regularly received Academic Achievement Awards for her good grades.

Tegan got to join in on celebrating Australia Day at the Moreton Bay Citizenship ceremony.  The Strathpine Community Centre was where Tegan and many others welcomed 150 new Citizens – from all over the world – to live as an Australian Citizen in Moreton Bay area today on Australia Day.

Tegan and Mrs Jane McMillian,  the winner of Citizen of Year 2014 Australia Day Award,  had the honour of cutting the Australia Day Cake for everyone to enjoy.

Well Done Tegan!  We are very proud of you and all your hard work

Looking forward to a very exciting 2014!

ZOO RUN IS SOLD OUT!

Jetts Zoo Run - SOLD OUTIt is official – We have a SOLD OUT Event!!!!

That means lots of money for the injured wildlife and a really fun atmosphere for those who were lucky enough to secure a spot in our first ever ZOO RUN!!!!

So unfortunately, if you haven’t registered, this means we are unable to take any more registrations. We have a strict cap on numbers for people and animal safety, so we won’t be extending our number of participants.

If you have registered, but not yet paid, this is a timely reminder that places are actually allocated on a first pays – first served basis. You may think your spot is reserved, but it is not – unless you pay straight away, it may be gone! This has always been included in our terms and conditions, so that we ensure that we get a full event for our fundraiser.

So c’mon, make that payment and we’ll see you on Sunday for the Jetts Zoo Run!

🙂
