Special thanks to our C4C partner Painted Dog Conservation Inc (Perth) our Major Sponsors, Sponsors, Supporters and the excellent hardworking crew of people, especially Pulteney Grammar School Conservation Corps students who pulled together over the months, weeks and days leading up to and on the weekend of the Exhibition.
Thanks to the 300+ people who turned out to attend our Opening Night and the many people who attended over the weekend.
Collectively the artists participating in C4C2012 sold hundreds of art pieces. A real showcase of South Australian, interstate and international talent. A special thanks to our Headline Artist Noel Dansie.

C4C is as much about raising awareness as it is raising funds. C4C believes that conservation is a celebration…
- Celebrating the African attitude of reuse and recycling
- Celebrating the colours and rhythms of Africa
- Celebrating the wonders of the African wildlife, culture and sense of community
- Celebrating the joy of coming together to make a difference.
On behalf of C4C, we thank you for celebrating with us.
This year, with your help, we have raised a record $26,700 in profit!
We estimate that to bring 10 students from Zambia on a conservation exchange in 2014 to Adelaide will be approximately $65,000, so with you, I stand proud in our joint efforts and contribution towards this amazing opportunity for these children and ultimately the wildlife they live with.
With a record 330 attendees on opening night, gospel tunes from the Zimbabwe Choir bought the Pulteney Grammar School Quad to life. With Rhino welcome biscuits and a ‘make a difference’ greeting from Pulteney Grammar Conservation Corps students on arrival, guests celebrated with great food and wine. Sharing the conservation vibe Anna Tolan, who had flown; thanks to benefactors, all the way from Chipembele Wildlife Education Trust in Zambia to open the event.
What a celebration!

Edie wins a double pass into Monarto Zoo and a Giraffe Safari experience – to hand feed the bull giraffe behind the scenes!
Wear-a-Snare Raffle
151 snares were sold in our raffle. Congratulation on wearing your snare as that means the wire is out of circulation and cannot go back into the National Parks of Africa and trap, injure and kill the wildlife. It is a reminder of making a difference and of the importance of conservation education in the protection of wildlife.
Thanks to Send-a-basket for their generous donation of the wrapping of all the donated raffle prizes.
