Help us fight the good fight!
Join M.A.M.A today as a member to help stop inappropriate mining from destroying & polluting our Manning Valley!
Joining M.A.M.A
By joining M.A.M.A you are showing your support for stopping inappropriate mining in the Manning Valley (for more information see 'The mining threat' page).
​
Whilst we always appreciate additional help, there is no obligation to volunteer once becoming a member. Just being aware or helping spread the awareness is one of the most critical areas we need in order to prevent inappropriate mining from polluting and ruining our Valley.
​
If you would like to donate, we encourage people to first become a member, otherwise, all donations are taxed meaning that almost 50% of the money you donate goes to the Australian Government. However, if you become a member (for $2), 100% of your donations go directly towards supporting the cause and making an impact in our community!

Manning Against Mining Alliance Incorporated (MAMA)
(Incorporated under the Associations Incorporation Act 2009)
All that's needed to sign up is to put your details below and contribute your membership fee of just $2 (it's a legal requirement for us to put a nominal fee on members as an 'incorporation'). This consists of $1 annual fee and $1 initial entrance fee.
