Please donate to help people across QLD & NSW hurt by floods
The unprecedented floods and storms across eastern parts of Australia are leaving people devastated. Lives lost, families fighting to survive, and homes and business destroyed on a level we have never seen before.
Tens of thousands of families have been displaced, forced to leave everything behind, making it the largest recuse and evacuation effort ever. Families still don’t know when they can return, or what they will find when they do.
The Salvation Army Emergency Services Team and volunteers have served more than 40,000 meals and refreshments in 25 evacuation centres in the first two weeks of the floods. Right now, the team continues to support people escaping the floodwaters in the Lismore evacuation centre, while being in full operation in over 20 recovery hubs in QLD and NSW as the water subsides.
But our services are being stretched to the very limit.
With more support needed to provide emergency care in the days and weeks ahead, your help is urgently needed now to leave no one in need.
Please make a generous donation now, to support people and families
left devasted from the QLD & NSW flood crisis.
PHASE 1
Your Salvos action begins on the front line. Where people need help now simply to survive. Hot meals for emergency workers. Emotional care for those challenged to cope.
PHASE 2 - IN ACTION NOW
In the weeks straight after this disaster, you will be there for the clean-up and rebuild. This is the time of sleeves-rolled-up side-by-side hard work. Your Salvos action includes recover grants (cash), vouchers for clothes and furniture, Salvos care and comfort.
PHASE 3
Flood waters may recede. Yet the long months of hard work after a disaster can be dangerous if survivors feel forgotten and left behind. You continue to provide Salvos counselling care months, and even years later, so no one needs to feel they are all alone.
In the unlikely event that funds raised exceed the amount required to meet the emergency needs of people in affected areas of QLD and NSW, we will ensure the excess funds are used for broader Salvation Army emergency and disaster responses.
