Kākāpō Recovery has partnered with FLOAT- For Love Of All Things to help with kākāpō conservation.
One of a kind kākāpō t-shirts designed by The Original Thread’s Mel Paul are available this week only on the FLOAT website. For every item sold FLOAT will donate $8 USD to the Kākāpō Recovery Team.
Donations will help in a range of areas, including purchasing essential field and scientific equipment, providing supplementary feed to support breeding birds and to support our on-going research efforts.
Total of $6,282 was raised for the kākāpō through this FLOAT campaign.
