Vision to Make a Difference

  • Jul 1
  • 2 min read

In BIEPA, excitingly we are all part of a greater picture. Today, colleagues and friends all over the world are working to prioritise nature. This is the frontline, and we shouldn’t undervalue the contribution we all make by being part of this essential modern movement. Everyone can participate, as there are masses of projects on offer. Just contact the Mission Team leaders to see how you can join in.


One way to help is to donate to assist with projects. Not everything can be funded from grants or our relatively minor membership fees. Pictured here is Madeleine Luck-Grillon, a long time BIEPA member who has demonstrated significant generosity to supply badly needed funds.


Madeleine is the last person to make a grand, showy statement about her generosity and vision, but it is a great story. She, like the rest of us realises that humans are the greatest threat to health and happiness, and that by working for nature and animals we can make a difference.


BIEPA has recently been acknowledged by an experienced and seasoned environmental campaigner who visited us, as one of the most effective environment groups in Australia. Madeleine — alongside all our members and volunteers, our citizen scientists, management team and enthusiastic supporters — is creating this exciting reality.


So we salute her vision and commitment, and make sure these valuable resources are put to good use. We also acknowledge the generous donation of our dear colleague, artist Geoff Ginn who provided the pictured gorgeous limited print on our behalf in recognition of Madeleine’s donation. Anne Mason supplied hand-painted cards of thanks. As is often asserted, the story of BIEPA has inspiring power!

Bob Brown Foundation introduces their various projects periodically and give members the opportunity to donate directly to a targeted campaign or project. I like this idea.

I see first hand Madeleine's generous contributions and am compelled to add my heart-felt thanks to Richard's.

The organisation is truly blessed to have such a generous member committed to the cause.

Thank you Madeliene!
