The fund supports projects that contribute to coastal land management, marine mammal and seabird conservation, community awareness and community participation in coastal conservation. Projects are selected by the WILDCARE Gift Fund committee and undertaken by Tasmania Parks and Wildlife Service. These projects are identified by submissions from community groups supported by the Wildlife Service, or from the Wildlife Service directly.
Both Bruny Island Charters and Tasman Island Cruises donate a portion of every ticket sold on their tours to the fund. Individuals and businesses can also donate through the WILDCARE website and at the offices of both Bruny Island Charters and Tasman Island Cruises. [cite web
