Once born as, and formerly known as, Club Kakatua, we now go by The Restoration Club.
Founded in 2020 and operating worldwide, we aim for transparency, efficiency, and tangibility. Ever since our first day on this planet, we’ve loved birds — lovely creatures that also happen to be perfect indicators of ecological health. When they fall silent — due to being unhealthy, unhappy, or absent — it’s a signal for us to wake up, act accordingly, and get to work.
But if we love birds so much, why don’t we focus solely on helping birds?
Well, to put it bluntly: for birds — as well as for us humans — we can’t thrive without a healthy planet. Therefore, if we truly want to help our feathered friends (and ourselves), ensuring the planet’s health is the single most important mission we can undertake.
What sets us apart from others — we like to think — is that not only can individuals make a one-off donation or become monthly contributors, but we also take pride in acting as a service foundation for our partners.
Many businesses and organisations are already working in areas where their products or services naturally align with a greener future. But some want to go further — to make a difference behind the scenes as well. That’s where we come in. Whilst they focus on their strengths, we ensure their contributions are put to work as efficiently and tangibly as possible.

Back to the sound of ecological restoration.
We’re talking about healthy, crackling reefs, thriving birdlife, and living soil. Of course, we measure our impact with numbers — but we do prioritise quality over quantity. Planting trees without considering the surrounding ecosystem is meaningless. Rebuilding coral reefs in areas lacking protection from illegal fishing practices, or in places where extreme warming is highly likely, would be a waste of time, money, and energy.
Therefore we work where work is wanted — and where a transition is already underway. Our locations must be protected, both through regulation and cultural stewardship. Because when we plant a strong, native heritage tree, we want it to live longer than we ever will.
When we see fish returning to our reefs and hear that crackling sound of life, we know we are heading in the right direction. The same goes for on land. When we hear the singing of returning birds and see our forests growing — not only through our efforts but through the ecosystem’s own work — we know we’re onto something.
Restoration is what we do. And it sounds like paradise when it works.
Want to join us in our mission? We’ll be happy to have you with us, and if you’d like to partner up, we’ll be glad to help you achieve your goals.
Thank you for stopping by. The pleasure is all ours!
