Everyone who works for Earthrace Conservation is a volunteer . No-one receives a salary , we don ’ t have an expensive office to run and we certainly don ’ t travel first class or stay in swanky hotels . We can promise you that all donations go directly towards enabling us to continue with our missions and campaigns to preserve and protect oceans and marine life around the world .

Become a volunteer Why anyone would charge people to volunteer their time , heaven knows . If you ’ d like to work with us , it ’ s easy – and free . Just fill in the form on our website and we ’ ll introduce you to your nearest Chapter ( www . earthraceconservation . org / volunteer-form ). Welcome on board !

Please consider a donation

We plan on having a new ‘ Earthrace ’ at some stage in the future , and you can help us build it . With our own ships , we can get right into the middle of the action , wherever it is . In the meantime , we need donations so that we can take our new Sealegs vessel and her crew wherever she is needed .

Crucially , we need the right kind of equipment to make sure our missions succeed and to protect our teams . Clothing , hi def and cameras for stills and film so that we can document missions as they happen , and communications tools so that our teams can share what they ’ re doing with each other , and with you .

We want to reach more young people through our education plans and through our Junior Activists Club . Producing educational resources that are relevant to many different age groups and professional enough to be used extensively by educators around the world is not cheap .

There are always conferences , rallies and other events happening around the world where we can make a difference by speaking out . Last year , our core crew paid out of their own pockets to get to some of the really important ones , and to produce flyers and posters to take with them , but we ’ d like to be able to fund more people to do more this year . Can you help ?

You can donate direct to us through Paypal ( you don ’ t need an account ): paypal @ earthrace . net

If you would like to donate by cheque , please make it payable to Earthrace Charitable Trust and send it to Earthrace Conservation , 394 Wairere Road , RD2 , Henderson , 0782 , New Zealand .

Not for Profit Status Earthrace is registered as The Earthrace Charitable Trust in New Zealand .
