I really want to help In some small way but I can't decide which charity to give to there are so many listed.
Does anyone know of any that are just helping everyone.

Please consider donating to the Victorian fire service- NSW is getting $$$$ via an online donation thing and I worry Victoria is getting less...

(Ps am not in Victoria so no conflict of interest!)

Also thanks heaps for all the people who are thinking of Australia at the moment. It is horrible watching everyone go through this

please Donate to the Victorian for service. For some reason the nsw fire service is being promoted more. Both are equally as desperate. The $20million+ of donations about are pledged to the nsw Fire service.

Other ideas are food bank Australia - www.foodbank.org.au/support-us/make-a-donation/donate-funds/?state=vic

Wildlife fund - www.wwf.org.au/get-involved/bushfire-emergency

Thank you for your generosity!

Just to add, I’m in Victoria, I am unaffected personally by the fires. I have several family members in NSW who have lost their homes, so do appreciate the huge funds raised for NSW, but the other states need help too :)

I’ve donated to the Port Macquarie Koala Hospital and the RSPCA New South Wales.

@mrbob and @user1471481356 you both gave me the same link which I tried to donate to but because I'm in the UK they've asked me to email them which I have.

It's horrible watching from the UK what is happening so I can't imagine being there. I'll never complain about our weather again.

Hoping for rain or some miracle soon.
