サマンサウィルスさんのインスタグラム写真 - (サマンサウィルスInstagram)「We may or may not know someone directly affected (by the fires OR drought), if you are Australian, its highly likely you know someone or at least friends or family of someone who is.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ Not everyone has spare funds to donate, if that is the case, here are two significant ways that impact can be made:⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ■ Donate SPECIFIC Items.⠀⠀⠀ Dropping items at donation bins and on charity doorsteps (while generous) can (in times of disaster relief) add significantly to the workload of volunteers.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @givit_aus provides a platform for WHAT THOSE IN NEED, NEED RIGHT NOW. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ This could be anything from water tanks, clothing, cleaning items, food stamps, fencing, food for livestock… and the list goes on.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Please check out GIVIT.org.au to see if you might have something that could assist someone in need. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Those impacted specifically by bushfire and drought are highlighted on the site.⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ■ Leave bowls of water out for WILDLIFE.⠀ ⠀ ■ SHOP AT SUPPORTING BUSINESSES⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you don’t have funds spare to donate, another way to assist is to look at corporations and local business who are supporting bushfire and drought affected areas which you may be able to incorporate into your day to day.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Support small business in and near bushfire and drought affected areas. Assist in keeping their local economies going.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Check out @BuyFromTheBush for some businesses in drought affected areas.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you know of a business in your local area that is getting behind the bushfire appeal, please TELL US about them in comments below so that the community of this insta account can support also.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Live links to the above via link in bio + a list of charities that need funds for the overdrive they are in right now. -SWx⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀」1月3日 9時49分
