“If we will have the wisdom to survive, To stand like slow growing trees on a ruined place, Renewing, enriching it, If we will make our seasons welcome here, Asking not too much of earth or heaven, Then a long time after we are dead , The lives our lives prepare will live here.” (Wendell Berry)
Our Purpose
Elm Grove Sanctuary Trust/Limited was founded in 1987. It is a Not-for-profit Foundation listed with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC). We rely upon private donations from individuals who support our work and enable this to continue.
– Elm Grove Sanctuary Trust offers support, encouragement and hope for all people, irrespective of race or creed, especially when they are in need.
– Our focus is based upon a deep compassion for all of life in respect to the beauty and awe of our natural world.
– The daily human challenges confronting us all call us to stand beside each other as we seek to find solutions, lift despair, and offer hope for better outcomes.
– We support the need for a holistic approach to education for our younger generation with a focus on community engagement in the education of our young people to support equality of opportunity and enable them to reach their full potential.
– We hold in grave concern the health of our planet – a direct result of human consumption and failure to realise the sacredness of our natural world of which we are an integral part.
– We seek to draw people to a greater understanding and connection to our role as Guardians of Creation.
