The Whau River Catchment Trust
WRCT is the principal environmental organisation for the Whau River catchment. As a charitable Trust, we rely on the generosity of donors.
Auckland
The work of the The Whau River Catchment Trust (WRCT), along with WRCT's 'Friends of the Whau' (FOW) Volunteers can now be supported through Givealittle. So it is now possible for you personally to make a financial contribution, supporting the ongoing good work already underway helping to protect the Whau River, and for the continued restoration of native wildlife habitats within the Whau River catchment.
Money raised will go towards purchase of eco-sourced native plants, weed control, litter bins, and generally help with supporting volunteer restoration events for 2023-25. WRCT and our FOW Volunteers are working together for healthier streams and river through community participation and kaitiakitanga since the year 2000.
Join with the Whau River Catchment Trust and help make a difference.
Take time out, visit the river, and enjoy the many recreational opportunities it affords e.g. bird watching, kayaking, walking, cycling and fishing to name but a few things you can do or simply join in to improve the river and streams ecosystems by helping to plant and maintain thousands of native trees and shrubs.

Latest update
Another successful planting season 13 October 2023
WRCT Volunteers have been busy preparing and planting new sites around the catchment since June 2023. As we near the end of the planting season later this month the WRCT Community Nursery is looking quite empty and it is now things get very busy propagating new plants for our next planting season in 2024. We currently have a separate Givealittle Page raising funds to support work in the Nursery so if you would like to find out more go to https://givealittle.co.nz/cause/sponsor-a-native-plant. WRCT have a broad range of projects running at different times and again if you would like to know more follow the link to our website GREENING THE WHAU https://www.whauriver.org.nz/projects.
