"The ANZ and National Australia Banks participated in the Sand Dune Revegetation project in Queenscliff and it was great to have these local businesses involved in the program. Participants were enthusiastic and enjoyed undertaking the work - they came well prepared and seemed to have a good understanding of what was required. We look forward to continuing the partnership with these and other organisations in future programs. The work done by BacLinks in facilitating the partnerships was greatly appreciated.”
Tara Ellard, Department of Primary Industries, Marine Discovery Centre.
"After a fairly unremarkable start to the Delta Dogs program in the Geelong Bellarine region, the local branch made a quantum leap when it was able to accredit 30 new Pet Partner teams at a single intake. We would regard this as an extremely good example in the Sydney or Melbourne branches but remarkable in Geelong. It is a clear indication of the enthusiasm with which the local community has embraced the program and the support it has received from BacLinks in assisting with recruiting volunteers and administration support for the event.”
John Cornwall, General Manager, Delta Purina Pet Partners
"From BacLinks I've been introduced to people from Alcoa and the National Bank. I've actually got some volunteers out of it".
Vanda Iwanowski, Delta Purina Pet Partners
"BacLinks has got specific skills to recruit volunteers from corporate backgrounds. They've got the knowledge and the contacts".
Arnie Bax, Australia Red Cross
"BacLinks were able to find for us, from Alcoa, someone who specialised in logistics. He had some suggestions for things we could do to improve our operations".
