BCF – Boating, Camping, Fishing is launching “Small Change 4 Big Change” a national campaign running from June 10 – 12 to raise funds to restore Australian waterways.

Small Change 4 Big Change will give BCF customers the opportunity to improve the future of fishing in Australia by simply donating in-store when they make a purchase.

All money raised will go directly into one of 90 vital fish habitat restoration projects managed by national fishing charity OzFish Unlimited happening around the country.

Australia’s fish habitats have been lost at an unimaginable rate. Some are not just threatened but are considered functionally extinct. Less habitat means fewer opportunities for anglers to land that catch of a lifetime.

Nathan Eaves, BCF General Manager of Marketing and E-Commerce said the weekend can make a real difference.

“We expect this to be our biggest and best donation drive and cannot wait to see our customers get behind the OzFish mission by donating in-store during the Small Change 4 Big Change weekend.

“BCF matches all donations made to OzFish, ensuring that every customer dollar stretches as far as possible to support the many projects that OzFish has underway.”

“We are incredibly proud of the relationship that we’ve built with OzFish over the past 5 years and look forward to furthering our involvement and contribution to a cause that is at the core of who we are as BCF,” Eaves said.

Craig Copeland, OzFish’s CEO, agreed that no one shares the pride and adoration of our national waterways more than BCF and its customers.

“BCF has allowed us to scale and create change we never thought possible, while customers and volunteers get wheels moving in communities we never thought we would reach.

“Unfortunately, our inland rivers and coastal waterways still face habitat threats that impact our precious fish species. Climate changes, human impact and development mean our waterways need help now more than ever.

“The Small Change 4 Big Change Weekend presents an opportunity to do something big. We pledge to take your small change and create big change for fish habitat throughout Australian waterways we all love,” Copeland said.

If you would like to donate to OzFish this weekend, head into any BCF – Boating, Camping, Fishing store and talk to the team behind the counter.
