Conservation Volunteers Australia (CVA) was founded in 1982 in Ballarat. Our non profit organisation has grown to become the largest practical conservation organisation in Australasia, with offices in most capital cities and many regional centres across Australia and New Zealand. We welcome more than 12,000 volunteers every year from across Australia, New Zealand and the world. Since our organisation began we have planted 14 million trees and in 2009 totalled 100,000 volunteer days, contributing more than $15 million of practical assistance to the preservation of Australian and New Zealand environments.
