Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

The garden commemorates Geraldine Wogan-Browne for her services to the community.
A memorial garden recognising the life and contributions of Foster local Geraldine Wogan-Browne has been proposed for the Foster and District Community House. A meeting was held at the community house recently to discuss renovations and improvements to the facility, in particular the memorial to Geraldine Wogan-Browne as part of the front garden. McMillan MP Russell Broadbent and South Gippsland Shire Council community strengthening manager Ned Dennis attended the meeting. Dr Chris James put forward the proposal for the memorial garden earlier in the year.
“This decision was made because the work of Geraldine Wogan-Browne bodes with the ideals and sentiments of Foster Community House, namely the arts and multiculturalism,” she said. “Wogan-Browne, in my view, should be regarded as a pioneering woman who worked to better international relations at a time of immense geopolitical tensions.”
