Story

Raffle for rescued Australian Wildlife after the bushfires

I would just like to say a huge thank you to all of you have taken part in the raffle for my sculpture of Koala and Cub and donating to a cause that ripped at our hearts at the beginning of this year. Thank you all for your generosity. I am sorry to those who did not win, but hope the knowledge that you have helped WIRES help Australian wildlife will make you all feel like winners.

Since I put my raffle up we have seen our world change beyond recognition with us all struggling to cope with our new way of life because of COVID-19. I hope you and your loved ones are coping and are safe and well. I am sure this boost we have given to the people caring for the animals after the Australian bush fires will be hearten to know that they have not been forgotten amidst this current nightmare. And please if you can continue to support any Charites you can.

Please stay safe and well all of you and thank you again from the bottom of my heart for your support. Suzie

Suzie Marsh “I have been so moved by the devastation wrought by the Australian bushfires and the plight of the wildlife that I felt compelled to try to help in any small way that I could. I remembered a sculpture of a Koala and Cub that I made back in 2007 and thought it would make an ideal raffle prize to help raise some funds for one of the rescue centres over there. 


 I asked an Australian friend if she could recommend a centre who I could donate the monies to. She suggested the NSW Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service (WIRES) who are working hard to help wildlife affected by the bushfires and who do not get quite so much media attention as other rescue centres. She knows it well as when she was growing up her mother worked there and they lived alongside orphaned kangaroos, wallabies, wombats and possums.
