Anyway to help...

Comment Published at 21:4421:446 comments6 comments41 Visits41 VisitsReport

I felt some sense of relief that our family could help those in the Victorian Bushfires...We donated money to the Red Cross. If you can't find some spare cash to donate, I do believe that some toys are needed. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the people who survived and the families of those who did not survive...

Re: Anyway to help...

 As individuals giving it doesn't sound much but on a whole it is a lot and helps.

We gave money to the National Bank appeal and made up a parcel of goodies and gave it to The Salvaltion Army in Coffs Harbour  will also do my shopping at Woolies next week.

My thoughts are with those whom are going to have to re-build their lives from scratch and my prayers are with those who lost loved ones.

The official Red Cross web site can accept international monetary donations, if that is of any use?

They are looking for art/craft/ keep the kids entertained supplies, toiletries and kitchen wares.  It seems furniture, bedding and clothes are coming out of their ears at the moment.

We don't have a lot of spare money at the moment, but our girls have a gold coin free dress day at school tomorrow, so we'll give to that and shop at Coles and then Woolies (next Friday), as well as figure out a way of getting 90+ bars of soap down there as there are no collections for such things in Gympie :(.

Hey Arna, great job...you may want to call the Red Cross in your state and their may be local drop off points for your donations...ours was at Codi's school.

Thanks, I will see what I can donate too, in terms of supplies :0)
