Wandering Folk’s Positive Impact
“Wandering Folk’s passion and commitment to making an impact in the unprotected Daintree rainforest is something the whole team and crew deeply treasure. Business is a powerful proponent for change, and Wandering Folk is one of the leading examples of businesses making this impact part of their everyday.”

1% for the Planet
We are proud partners of 1% for the Planet. We have predominantly donated majority of our 1% of sales to Rainforest Rescue, whose projects re-establish rainforests through planting, maintenance, and restoration programs, as well as purchasing and protecting high conservation value rainforest to preserve its biodiversity. As of July 2023 we have donated over $103,000. We also worked with Carbon Positive Australia in 2023.

Charity tote bags
Each year we create a charity tote bag to match one of our picnic rugs, where a certain amount of proceeds is donated to a particular charity or cause such as the 2020 Red Cross bushfire appeal ($5,000) Great Koala National Park and more
recently Take 3 for the Sea. -
Floodraiser
In February 2022 our Northern Rivers community was effected by a flooding disaster. Along with allowing staff to be helping out on the ground we also put our efforts into creating a huge online fundraiser and event in partnership with Ocean Alley and The Northern Hotel plus many amazing brands which raised over $100,000 that was donated to GIVIT's NSW flood relief fund.
