100% of the profits from these charity enamel pins will be donated to Wildlife Victoria which in then will be distributed to wildlife shelters and carers to assist with countless animals, including pets, wildlife and livestock that have been impacted by these terrible bushfires.
Record-breaking temperatures and months of severe drought have fuelled a series of massive bushfires across Australia. They have taken an enormous toll on wildlife, with huge numbers of mammals, birds, reptiles, insects and other species killed. It has been estimated more than a billion animals have died around the country.
"That's Lovely Dear", is a accessories business located in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The impact of these fires has been absolutely devastating to the community surrounding us. Since this is a cause so incredibly close to our heart and our home, we have designed these two exclusive enamel pin designs of a Koala and a Kangaroo (the animals that often represent Australia's vast wildlife) to help generate funding in order to support our wildlife that have been impacted by this horrible fire season.
100% of the profits of this campaign, (which are also within the costs of each pledge) will be donated to Wildlife Victoria. (https://www.wildlifevictoria.org.au)

(We just know that we are going to reach our funding goal with the support of all of you! However, if there is a chance that we do not, we aim to donate the funds to Wildlife Victoria.)
Once we hit our funding goal of $750 AUD, we will have a successful amount of funding to produce both enamel pins with 100% of profits of each enamel pin order going towards Wildlife Victoria.

Risks & Challenges
- Production Delays: Pins manufacturers usually take about a month to make a batch of pins, so we aim to receive them by the beginning of March and ship as soon as possible. However, it is possible that due to vacation periods and other production delays, the pins may ship towards the end of March. We will do our best to keep you updated on the timeline and production of the pins.
- Shipping: Please make sure to double-check your shipping information and email. To make sure that your pins arrive safely to the correct addresses and that I may easily contact you for future updates.
- Colours: Colours may be slightly different to the image provided, however, colours will be pastel based.
Other Ways You Can Help
We understand that some people just can't contribute, but that doesn't mean you can't help:
- If you click "Back It", you can pledge any amount as a contribution to the project. 100% of this pledge will go straight to Wildlife Victoria to assist them with impact of the Australian bushfires.
- If you would like to donate directly to the production of the enamel pins without receiving them, you can choose "$5 Donation" perk to support us.
- If goals are reached, both of these pins will be available on our website (thatslovelydear.com) and on Etsy (Etsy.com/shop/thatslovelydear) where we will continue to sell them and give 100% profits to the Australian bushfire crisis.
