After a 7-year drought, it's very clear that our Farmers and their families, the “backbone of Australia”, are doing it exceptionally tough. They are the lifeblood of our country and they are in crisis. With the driest winter on record, they are struggling to feed sheep and cattle, and to keep crops alive. Farmers need our help!
Channel 9 and Rotary Australia have partnered with the National Farmers’ Federation, launching an appeal to big business and everyday Australians, so we can provide some emergency relief.
Donations are currently being administered by Rotary Australia World Community Service (RAWCS) and will be distributed to the organisations who can address the immediate needs of our farmers with the help of the National Farmers’ Federation.
Money raised will assist fodder and water supplies as well as helping farmers with everyday living expenses, including access to health and financial services.
Donate online through the website: https://donations.rawcs.com.au/17-2018-19
100% of donations goes to the farmers and is tax deductible via Rotary and RAWCS.
