Drought

 WOOLWORTHS DROUGHT ACTION DAY

THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO SHOPPED ON FRIDAY 15TH FEBRUARY.

$5.8 million dollars raised in one day.

Due to the magnificent efforts of the shoppers of Australia the members of the Country Women's Associations around Australia are going to be able to help over 3000 farming families.

We will be able to pay their emergency household accounts as well as health expense, fuel costs and costs involved with children going back to school.

We will also be able to ensure that sustainable agriculture projects are continued which will help farmers deal with droughts into the future.

From the 3rd March application forms for assistance will be available from the state offices of CWA either by giving them a call or from their websites. Details can be accessed through the links under state members or other links on this website.

Thank you also to Woolworths for recognising there is still a drought affecting farmers in our rural communities and for doing something about it.
