Story
Hello friends, family and colleagues,
Did you folks know plastic is set to outweigh fish in the ocean by 2050?
I'm attempting to make a difference by choosing to refuse single use plastic this July.
Can you support me?
************************************************
This year I'm pledging to:
Recommit to ditching the top 4 single use plastic culprits: that's plastic bags, plastic bottles, straws, and disposable coffee cups (yep they're lined with plastic too).
But to raise the bar and challenge myself I will also be seeing how plastic-free I can get my bathroom - and I'll post updates and tips along the way for those keen to do so also.
I'll be doing it for the whole month.
************************************************
Can you support me?
I'm fundraising for the Cairns and Far North Environment Centre (CAFNEC), who have been advocating for environmental protection in Far North Queensland since 1981. Your donation will help initiatives such as the Marine Response Team - a group of dedicated volunteers taking action to protect our Far North Queensland (FNQ) marine environment. In the past year, CAFNEC has hosted over 25 plastic reducing awareness and education events in Far North Queensland including the Cairns Drain Stencil Project, Boomerang Bags Cairns, film screenings, workshops on plastic-free living, a family fun day and events for Plastic Free July in 2016. They also campaigned for a ban on single-use plastic bags and a container deposit scheme in the State of Queensland (which is finally happening from 2018!).
I would love for you too to sign up for Plastic Free July, or support my efforts to reduce my plastic use by making an online donation, posting a message of support, and sharing my fundraiser with others. Donations made through this platform are secure and will be remitted directly through to my charity of choice.
Thanks so much for your support!

Cairns and Far North Environment Centre Inc (CAFNEC) Gift Fund
The Cairns and Far North Environment Centre (CAFNEC) is a not-for-profit incorporated association which acts as conservation council for the region from Cardwell north to Torres Strait and from the east coast to the Gulf of Carpentaria. The Great Barrier Reef and Wet Tropics World Heritage Areas are included. Collaboration with other conservation organisations on environmental issues of state and national importance has become increasingly important.
CAFNEC also plays an important role within the broader environmental movement, collaborating with other organisations focusing on environmental issues of state and national importance.
CAFNEC relies heavily on the work and dedication of volunteers and supporters. A voluntary management committee is elected by association members, both individuals and conservation groups. Membership is open to anyone who values the natural environment and accepts the objectives and rules of the association.
Most of our funding comes from donations, fundraising and small government grants. Special purpose grants from foundations and government agencies, each separately acquitted, have covered such varied projects as a sustainability conference, rehabilitation in the Cairns Central Swamp, a campaign for a Coral Sea marine park, Cape York World Heritage assessment, and promotion of domestic solar panels.
