The Save the Bilby Fund is constantly in need of funds to maintain the Currawinya 'Save the Bilby' fence and the Charleville captive breeding programme. In order to do this essential work, the Save the Bilby Fund needs help from Australian kids and their families.

Besides buying Darrell Lea Easter bilbies, your school can also help by hosting your own bilby fundraiser using Save the Bilby goods.

The Save the Bilby Fund has more than ten items that your school or family can purchase. Monies raised from the sale of any of the great bilby merchandise on offer go directly to the Fund. Click here to see the product range and price list.

Here are some fundraising great ideas you could try:

Easter Hat Parade
This Easter, why not hold an Easter Hat Parade at your school? Everyone can make crazy, funny and big hats to celebrate the Easter season! Your school could then purchase a range of Save the Bilby products for prizes. For first prize, what about a family of toy bilbies and a Save the Bilby T-shirt? For runners up try pewter bilbies or some caps. Order here.

Family Easter Party
Get your friends and family together at your place to enjoy the warm weather of an Aussie Easter! Deck the house out in bilby gear, like bilby magnets, BBQ Apron, fur toys and a bilby tea towel! After a yummy Darrell Lea Easter bilby dessert, you could all sit down and watch the Bilby Brothers video. Order here.

Bilby Raffle
Show the bilby you care by holding a raffle at your school! Purchase lots of great prizes, like Bilby Brothers videos, posters, toy bilbies, caps and T-shirts and see how much money you can raise by selling tickets at lunch times and around your neighbourhood. Your school could even go one better and spend the money you raise from the raffle to purchase a Save the Bilby Fence Panel. Order here.

Bilby Easter
We all know we are given waaaaayyyyy more chocolate at Easter than we can eat, so why not give your friends and family something a little different? Why not given them a small toy bilby along with a small 90g Darrell Lea Easter bilby? That way they still get the chocolate and they have something to keep all year round as well! Other good gifts are bilby t-shirts and caps. You could even send Easter bilby postcards instead of the usual Easter rabbit greeting cards. Order here.
