Australia Bushfire – How Can You Donate & Help?

Want to donate to help with the Australia bushfire relief efforts? Here’s a few options on where to donate to help both people and wildlfe in Australia

Unless you’ve been totally living under a rock for the last few months the chances are you’ve heard about the truly devastating Australia bushfires smashing the country right now.

It’s hard to comprehend the size and impact of these fires – but an area twice the size of Belgium is currently ablaze!

They’ve also created a plume of smoke wider than Europe which has even turned glaciers and mountains in neighbouring New Zealand brown with ash fallout…and they’re 2,000km away

Honestly the Australia PM Scott Morrison has been f*cking useless with handling this national disaster (or even admitting there is a problem!) so Australia needs all the help it can get. Heck even Aussie celeb Celeste Barber has raised more cash than the government has pledged!

Lets be honest here – thoughts and prayers for Australia aren’t going to cut it and the easiest way you can help out with the Australia bushfire is to donate to some of the incredible organisations helping on the ground, including wildlife rescue services, the Red Cross and of course the true heroes of it all – the Rural Fire Service.

And if you cant afford to donate give this post a share on Facebook or your social media and help spread the word! Actually do that if you donate too!
