Impact stories

Landcare Victoria

Landcare Victoria needed a stronger voice to advocate for funding and support its dynamic local groups. By engaging with other philanthropists, we were able to underwrite the appointment of a CEO.

BIODIVERSITY COUNCIL

Rendere is a proud founding supporter of the Biodiversity Council – Australia’s first scientific body dedicated to fostering public, policy and industry recognition of our priceless natural heritage.

Land Covenantors Vic

In 2022, Rendere provided funding and back-of-house support to establish a new association to bring land covenantors together to share knowledge and advocate for better policy settings.
