As the Australian bushfire disaster continues to ravage communities across the country, the list of those affected and displaced continues to grow. Many lives have been lost, homes & business destroyed, millions of wildlife and livestock animals have lost their lives and over 12 million acres of farmland and bushland destroyed.

How can I help?

For those with money to give we welcome any donations that can be made to help those in need. As this disaster has affected so many different groups we have selected the below organisations that we believe are doing amazing and essential work to help support and restore our fire affected communities.


Wildlife Rescue - WIRES (NSW Wildlife Information, Rescue and Education Service), Wildlife Victoria & Wildlife Rescue South Coast

WIRES, Wildlife Victoria, and Wildlife Rescue South Coast are wildlife rescue organisations. Their mission is to actively rehabilitate and preserve Australian wildlife and inspire others to do the same. It is estimated that approximately 800 million native animals have been impacted by the fires so far. It is impossible to know how many more animals will be lost in the fires, but the impacts on the affected ecosystems are detrimental. To help rescue sick, injured and orphaned wildlife please support these amazing organisations.
