500m2 Protected Habitat
One-time Contribution
Our Mission
We believe protecting and restoring nature must be credible, accountable, and rewarding for you and habitat that support Australia's native fauna. We deliver measurable environmental outcomes that create lasting impact.
What We’re Working Towards
Our mission is to empower individuals and organisations to support enduring, nature-positive biodiversity outcomes through transparency and high-integrity.
We connect environmental investment with real conservation and restoration work that you can see, visit and be proud of.
A key expression of this mission is Habitat Homes – an initiative that enables everyday Australians to directly protect critical native bushland. Through a $250 tax-deductible contribution, 500 square metres of Australian habitat – approximately the size of a traditional home block – is managed, on your behalf, for a period of 25 years. Each 500m2 is referred to as a ‘Habitat Home’.
We create meaningful pathways for people to participate in long-term environmental protection.
How We Deliver Impact
1. Real, Verifiable Outcomes
Every Habitat Home directly supports projects that deliver measurable improvements in biodiversity and ecosystem health. These are tangible, on-the-ground sites that are protected, actively managed, and continuously monitored.
2. Transparent, Trusted Systems
Our approach prioritises integrity and accountability. Supporters can clearly see how their contributions translate into real environmental outcomes, supported by robust safeguards that ensure long-term ecological success.
3. Community and Stewardship
We make it easy to act. Individuals can contribute through Homes for Habitat, while businesses can partner with Catchment to secure larger scale projects that have high-integrity — enabling meaningful environmental impact at every level.

Real Words From Real Supporters
"Choosing to match my house block to provide habitat for native fauna was an easy decision. Knowing my support directly helps threatened species makes the contribution feel real and personal. With Habitat-Homes, I can see the difference my investment is making—and that’s incredibly motivating."
"We purchased Habitat-Homes because we knew that 100% of our money was going to real conservation outcomes on the ground and not caught up in admin and other costs. Our impact is instant but will also leave a legacy. We bought six credits - one to match our home and one for each of our five children!"
"For my business, I was looking for something that was more than just a carbon offset but rather had a long-term positive impact on nature. That’s what drew me to purchasing Habitat-Homes."
