The Coca Cola Australia Foundation

Since 2006, Coca-Cola Australia has partnered with Landcare Australia via support from the global Coca-Cola Foundation and the Coca-Cola Australia Foundation. Through this long-term partnership, private landholders, Landcare and Coastcare Groups have been supported to protect rivers, oceans and local ecosystems, while also championing community action and education activities that promote water as a key natural asset.

The partnership has supported Coca-Cola employees to engage in various environmental volunteering activities and provided funding for a range of impactful community projects including:

The Farm Dam Restoration Project

In 2022, the Coca-Cola Australia Foundation partnered with Landcare Australia on the $600,000 Farm Dam Restoration project. Read more about the project HERE.

The three-year project will transform degraded farm dams across New South Wales, Victoria, and South Australia, helping observe biodiversity by providing critical wetland habitats for native wildlife.

This year site preparation has been undertaken, and plants sourced for three South Australian sites, 1,800 plants have also been planted a property in Bull Creek.

The farm dam restoration project will also facilitate knowledge sharing across a broad cross-section of the farming community, encouraging sustainable and innovative farm dam enhancement.
