One of my favourite animals, the kororā (Little Penguin), is protected by the dedication and hard work of the West Coast Penguin Trust.
Project Jonah New Zealand are a charity who rescue marine mammals across Aotearoa, running outstanding training & education programmes for all who are keen to get their hands sandy.
Feeling completely inspired after I received my Marine Mammal Medic certificate, I reached out to Louisa, Project Jonah’s Community Lead, to ask if there were any projects that I could help with.
Louisa introduced me to the Marine Mammal Card Game, an educational resource developed by Alisa Hasler, with spectactular illustrations donated by Ferne Eagle. Together with Mina Holder, Education Coordinator and Educator at Project Jonah, we launched this card game as a free (and fun!) resource for tamariki, teachers, parents, and all marine lovers across Aotearoa.

Brand Guidelines | West Coast Penguin Trust
“I and the West Coast Penguin Trust have been so fortunate to have received the offer of help with design and social media from Erin Dailey. It came just at the right time when other priorities meant that aspect of our work was suffering. Erin’s artistic talent, design flair and style and her passion for wildlife shine through in all that she does! She is an answer to my prayers!
I have asked for guidance and help with a fundraising campaign email, extracting key elements of research reports to draft website stories, and drafting an e-newsletter. That was all achieved with great understanding and collaboration. Not only that, but unasked, Erin created new e-newsletter templates and a brand guideline for all that we do. When there have been deadlines for campaigns and newsletters, Erin has worked closely with me to ensure we meet them.
In terms of success, we have had success! Our match-funding target was met within days! Our newsletter was very well received, generating comments and donations, and our trustees love the brand guidelines. Next projects will be the Annual Report and another newsletter. As I said, we are very fortunate to have Erin on our team.”
