FLOOD EMERGENCY APPEAL: Wujal Wujal Recovery

Help us raise $100,000.00 to support on the ground response activities!

Pictures taken by community members in Wujal during flooding.

Port Douglas to Mungumby, have experienced the worst floods in a century, brought on by ex-tropical Cyclone Jasper. Record-breaking flooding in the Daintree has created an ongoing emergency in Wujal Wujal, Ayton, Shipton’s Flat and Rossville. Our community of Wujal Wujal where approximately 250 people reside at, was significantly impacted by flooding and people have been evacuated from the community via helicopters to Cooktown where they will reside at in the meantime.
There are ten casual Jabalbina Rangers who can be employed to help with the clean up. They need to be transported to Wujal Wujal, and as required to Ayton, Shipton’s Flat and Rossville, and to have resources, chainsaws to remove fallen trees, and high-pressure cleaners and other tools to remove the mud from community buildings and houses. 
We kindly request the support of our partners and friends to help our People and Communities with the clean up and restoration.
Your support will be go a long way in bringing our Yalanji People back home to their beloved home of Wujal Wujal.

Reef Assist Update🌿

We are expanding our tree planting efforts with over 6,000 trees already in the ground which is a huge achievement and have plans to add 3,000 more. This extra number of trees will allow our Foresters crew to infill gaps to help ensure a healthier and more sustainable ecosystem.

At the moment we are in a constant battle with the weeds and grass. If left unattended for a week, the grass and weeds can grow up to anywhere between 30cm to 90cm remarkably fast!

With fingers crossed, we hope the Daintree River stays within its banks this year. Flooding can be such a concern for both environment and communities around it.
The Reef Assist project is moving along nicely.
