Eco Barge were once again successful in obtaining a grant from The Coca-Cola Foundation for 2023. This grant allowed Eco Barge to continue to run our core projects as well as continuing to recycle our marine debris into reusable products and extract findings from the count and sort data we have been collecting since 2009. The Coca-Cola Foundation has been our major Partner since 2019. Coca-Cola South Pacific were Eco Barge’s main partner for 2018, enabling Eco Barge to run all three core projects throughout the year alongside a new and very exciting initiative. As part of the funding received from Coca-Cola, Eco Barge are teamed up with The Plastic Collective and received a mobile plastic recycling machine. Thanks to the Coca-Cola South Pacific partnership and the Plastic Collective Shruder the waste removed from the Whitsunday islands no longer is sent to landfill but up-cycled into other usable materials.

Eco Barge received funding support from the Queensland Government’s Community Sustainability Action Grant Program. This support will enable Eco Barge to run marine debris removal trips for the Whitsunday Group of Islands and coastline, including count and sorts and recycle events for the collected marine debris.

Eco Barge is proud to be one of 28 regional community groups across Australia selected for the Qantas Regional Grants 2024 from over 1,700 applicants. This support enables us to conduct marine debris removal trips and train volunteers as Eco Team Leaders for our core activities and the Whitsunday Turtle Rescue Centre. This funding will help safeguard the Whitsunday marine environment, preserve sea turtle populations, and empower our volunteers to lead in environmental conservation.
