Donate to Hunter Wildlife Rescue through the Return & Earn app
When you recycle bottles and cans at a Return and Earn machine in New South Wales, you have the option to donate your refund to Hunter Wildlife Rescue NATF instead of keeping the money.
How to donate through Return & Earn
You can select to donate your 10c refund to Hunter Wildlife Rescue (NATF) on the app from any machines or automated depot in NSW.
- Download the Return & Earn app on your Apple or Android device
- Open your Return and Earn app AND search for “Hunter Wildlife Rescue NATF”
- Press on its tile, scroll down and select ‘Set as payout’
- Scan your app at your local Return and Earn machine or automated depot
- Return your containers and press “TRANSFER” on the machine screen or follow the steps on the Tag and Drop screen at an automated depot.
100% of the refund will be donated to Hunter Wildlife Rescue.
Are you a business wanting to help us through recycling?
Hunter Wildlife Rescue is inviting local businesses to support our work simply by recycling the bottles and cans consumed through your business.
By directing your eligible containers to our Return & Earn account, you’ll be helping fund vital wildlife rescue and rehabilitation. We’d love to chat about how we can make this partnership work with minimal disruption to your day-to-day operations—together, we can turn everyday recycling into real impact for our native wildlife.
