My heart is breaking for the bush fire victims, firefighters and their families and the animals who have been affected through this disaster. I feel quite overwhelmed with the scale of the devastation and how to help. WYW have made donations to the NSW Rural Fire Service and Wires and I hope to continue supporting these causes and more to aid recovery efforts.
Below is a helpful post on ways to donate money to make the most difference. This list doesn't provide all the ways to help but is a great start.

- http://Foodbank.org.au provides food relief and plays an important role in times of emergency and natural disasters.
- http://www.givit.org.au/disasters - donate items or funds to effected disaster areas.
- https://blazeaid.com.au/ - a volunteer-based organisation that works with families and individuals in rural Australia after natural disasters. Working alongside the rural families, their volunteers help to rebuild fences and other structures that have been damaged or destroyed.
Stay safe,
