Friends Of The Koala
About us
Friends of the Koala is the only rehabilitation group licensed to rescue, rehabilitate and release koalas across the Ballina, Byron, Kyogle, Lismore, Richmond Valley and Tweed local government areas in the Northern Rivers Region of NSW. We rescued 400+ koalas eCH YEAR, which is more than any other group in NSW - in fact it's about half the koalas rescued each year in NSW. Apart from our licensed work we run a 24 hour Rescue Hotline, develop campaigns to save koalas such as our 'Help prevent a local extinction' campaign, advocate for koalas, educate the community about koalas and what individuals can do to help save koalas, and work to restore koala habitat. We're a volunteer organisation funded entirely by donations and any successful grants, but most of our funding is through small individual donations.
