Everyone has been moved in some way by the natural disaster that continues to ravage country Victoria.

In response to the emergency, Australia’s credit unions and building societies have set up a Bushfire Relief Fund. Donations are tax-deductible and all money collected will be used to provide emergency relief through the Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal.

Donations to the Bushfire Relief Fund can be made online, by credit card, direct debit or via PayPal.

Alternatively, donations can be made at branches of participating credit unions and mutual building societies.
