Eureka Council

Please sign up as a supporter of the Native Australian Culture, and of the work the Eureka Council is trying to do in preserving, teaching, enriching and celebrating that wonderful freedom and way of life.

We are not asking for your money in these hard times, but we are looking for your active support.  We are also looking for activists who love their country, and our Native-Anzac Australian Culture enough to want to write letters, make phone calls, and stir the possum generally for the purpose of seeing our Native Australian heritage and culture preserved and enriched.  When we work together in a co-ordinated way, we can make a difference for the better.  Sign up here
