Rising Tide Australia

Rising Tide Newcastle is a grassroots, unstructured, and totally volunteer run group, and we don't have a team of canvassers on the streets gleaning money from passers by!

All our expenses are funded by donations, with the gap covered by the members of the group personally.

If you can afford to send some money our way, we are very grateful, and we can promise that every dollar will go a long way in the campaign against the expanding Australian coal industry, and other causes of climate change. Here are some examples of where your money might go:

• Producing documents, fliers, stickers, t-shirts, badges, posters, banners, and other campaign materials intended to raise awareness of and opposition to the expansion of Hunter coal exports (and other causes of climate change), and empower people to take action.

• Putting on events and demonstrations to do the same.
• Undertaking Non-Violent Direct Action against the coal industry and those who would facilitate its expansion. Costs associated with this include court-imposed fines and reimbursements.
