Since Aussie Helpers
aired on “Australian Story” on the
26 March, 2007, the nation began
opening their hearts to this worthy
charity. It was this program that
brought the reality of the current
crisis in rural Australia to the
lounge rooms of the urban areas.
Brian’s story also
brought to many drought affected
families some hope, somewhere to
turn.
Whilst the donations
poured in, so have the calls for
help. This has resulted in Aussie
Helpers going national, with
volunteers now working in every
state in Australia. Aussie Helpers
is providing humanity needs for
fellow Australian’s – yes, purely
Aussies helping Aussies.
The charity has
given away over a million dollars
worth of drought aid, and thanks to
the generosity of fellow
Australian’s this figure continues
to grow.
We can proudly say
that every cent donated goes back
into the community. But the reality
is, more donations are needed, as
the drought worsens so does the
desperate need for assistance.
Whilst the drought
affects farmers, it increases the
cost of meat, poultry, fruit,
vegetables, dairy products and
grain… yes, most items on
supermarket shelves.
We now have the
effects of severe flooding in
several states and the farmers
affected need our ongoing support so
if you can help in any way no matter
how small everything is greatly
appreciated by Aussie Helpers.
