YTD Raised: $0.00

Devil Island Project is committed to saving the endangered Tasmanian Devil by building free-range enclosures on large areas of land that are called "Devil Islands" and our two new schemes "The Great Devil Walls of Tasmania" (GDWOT). These double fenced facilities quarantine the Devils in their natural surroundings of their home State of Tasmania as an almost self-sustaining population and have kept them free and safe from the Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD) cancer which has rapidly wiped out 90% of their species over large areas throughout Tasmania. Healthy Tasmanian Devils can now roam wild in our Devil Islands with optimum welfare conditions and safe and secure isolated areas for breeding which will then increase their chances for survival and reestablishing themselves in the future.

Families and carers of children with rare diseases experience significant psychological stress due to social isolation, unemployment, diagnostic delays, lack of information and difficulty accessing appropriate health care. The Steve Waugh Foundation is working to help change things for children with a rare disease by giving hope, providing medicine, equipment and treatment, supporting education and research, partnering with other like agencies and organisations as well as supporting specific projects and programs. The Foundation has already supported over 400 families through generous donations from our Patrons, corporate partners and supporters. We invite you to join the Steve Waugh Foundation to give our children with a rare disease and their families ‘somewhere to turn’.
