We are on the lookout for someone with fundraising experience! 🇦🇺
We're the charity behind #PlanningAlerts, #RightToKnow, #TheyVoteForYou, and #OpenAustralia and we need help as our funding is almost out.
More Info: oaf.org.au/2026/02/17/b...
Unfortunately we’ve seen an increase in automated services sending too many requests to theyvoteforyou.org.au.
We have been forced to implement some extra security measures - these shouldn’t impact humans but if you are having any issues, please let us know.
