Bushfires

[alwaysjbj]

Like many others, I am horrified and heartbroken by the Victorian bushfires... my heart goes out to all those affected directly or indirectly by this tragedy.

I know the link is being posted all over LJ, but I figured it can't hurt to post it again.

Bushfire donations

The 2009 Victorian Bushfire Fund to assist individuals and communities affected by the devastating bushfires in Victoria has been launched by the Premier John Brumby in partnership with Red Cross and the Federal Government.

If you would like to donate please click here - Red Cross website or phone 1800 811 700.

With so many people accessing it, the page is slow to load. Please be patient and persevere.



As an alternative for those in Australia:-

Victorian Bushfire Appeal Donations

All Bunnings Warehouse stores nationaly will be an official collection point for cash donations to the Victorian Bushfire Appeal Fund. Every cent raised will be donated directly to the Appeal.

 Even a small donation can make a big difference to the victims of these tragic events.

It's just dreadful, I can't imagine how the country as a whole must feel.

Yeah, between the fires down south and the floods up north it's all just so heartbreaking right now.
