This certificate and letter are for everybody that was involved in the fundraiser. I also received an email from Wildlife Victoria saying:
I hadn't realised that this donation was from a fundraising event - what a terrific result! Can you please pass on our heartfelt thanks to all of the artists and organisers involved in the event.

All the money raised so far has already been transfered to the charities but I'm finding it difficult to let go of this project and consider it complete - before I do, I wanted to try one last push to raise any extra funds I can by auctioning the remaining artwork that has been so generously donated.

Therefore, I've re-listed these items for auction on the website for another *24 hours*... Some of the remaining artists have even given me permission to reduce the opening bids on their work - please have a look and take this final chance to support this project!!

'Art for Australia's Wildlife' fundraising event, The Earth Hub Nelson, Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th January. 10am to 2pm.

This fundraiser will feature creations produced by an eclectic mix of talented and heart driven New Zealand artists, mainly from the Nelson, Tasman and Marlborough regions. At the Earth Hub on the 25th and 26th of January, you will have a unique opportunity to view and purchase a range of especially dedicated artworks.

All artworks have been donated by their artists, with a minimum of 28 local artists participating, there will be works including but not limited to ceramics, photography, prints and paintings.

100% of proceeds will be donated to two extraordinary wildlife rescue and emergency response organisations: WIRES and Wildlife Victoria. These organisations face the enormous task of working on the day to day healing and survival of countless creatures, with animal deaths having already reached one billion. There are swathes of habitat to restore, paws to poultice, burned skin to balm and bandage. The art will reflect the raw reality of the extent of the loss and damage that Australia faces, but that all of us as a global community face as a result. A number of species already at risk are now feared to be on the brink of extinction, if not extinct, while others have had up to 60% of their precious habitat obliterated.

The community is invited to come and view, donate or buy and share in this event and our collective desire to express solidarity, and to help in any little or big way that we can. Every contribution counts - just as every creature needing our help does. All are warmly welcome.
