GENERAL - A general donation to the Society assists in the ongoing work of the Society.

W.A.O. The Wombat Awareness Organisation of South Australia works primarily with Southern Hairy-Nosed Wombats. They are working with wombats suffering mange and to develop hospital and release facilities for wombats.

MITE PhD Jack Lighten is studying the morphology of mites. The Society would like him to be able to expand his work to study specifically the mites which cause mange on wombats.

P.J. NICHOLSON Award. This award, named in honor of the man who as a boy first studied wombats and their burrows by active research is now given to one of the Society's younger members who demonstrates similar enthusiasm.

WOMBETTA is a sanctuary working with organic treatments for mange in wombats including enhancing missing nutrients in Australian grasses.

NARG is a Native Animal Rescue Group that works with Bare-Nosed Wombats. This group raises and rescues wombats. Donations assist feed and transport, and the development of release and hospital facilities.

BRYNMAWR An Environmental Education Centre is aiming to develop a mobile wombat education program. A release site for orphans, BRYNMAWR is also constructing pre release wombatoriums.

CAMERA ACTION Phil Borchard is conducting a PhD. involving animals in the riparian zone using movement activated filming of wombats. Donations will allow him to further this non invasive form of wombat research.

WOMBAT RISE Sanctuary was setup as a home for injured and orphaned native wildlife in 1984. Since then there has been a steady stream of orphaned and injured wombats cared for at Wombatrise.

Fourth Crossing Wildlife, owned by Linda Dennis, carries out the rescue, rehabitation and release of Australian native animals, specialising in the Bare-Nosed Wombat. Linda operates Fauna First Aid, a wildlife lecture program, teaching native animal care and wildlife awareness to vets, vet nurses, sanctuary and zoo keepers, wildlife enthusiasts and school children.

Cedar Creek Wombat Rescue is run by Roz and Kev Holme in the Hunter Valley region of NSW. While CCWR care for many native animal species they specialise in the care of Bare-Nosed Wombats, particularly those suffering from the dibilitating illness Sarcoptic Mange. CCWR carries out an extensive mange program, treating wild wombats in their own environment which helps to to minimise stress.
