QCWA Public Rural Crisis Fund

It is very sad that our new year has started with such heartache and devastation, not only for our fellow citizens but the innocent wildlife who have suffered beyond belief.

We have been blessed by the donations and generosity of people worldwide and we live in hope that our government is able to step up and lead our country into a quick recovery.

We have had many phone calls and enquiries regarding how to donate through the QCWA, as all our raised funds are 100% donated back to the communities affected by the fires and drought.

We issue food vouchers, petrol vouchers, school fees and pay bills directly to assist the families.

To donate to the QCWA Public Rural Crisis Fund for bushfire assistance or the ongoing drought relief:

Here in our little community, but with huge hearts, we have started organising combined fundraising events.

We have also been working with the Lions Club and Rainbow Drought Runners on a project due to a very kind Goomboorian farmer of mangoes.

At our Tin Can Bay Branch we will continue to work on our existing projects for the year. Kits for Kids, Domestic Violence Kits, and parcels for our overseas military troops, to name a few.
