our impact A fiver for a farmer
In Autumn 2018, parts of Australia had record drought, leaving farmers across the country in dire straits. As costs and weather conditions for Farmers and their families continued to spiral, as an organisation we knew that it was important to play our part, regardless of how small to assist these people where we could. We registered through Hit105 Brisbane for a campaign they were supporting called 'A Fiver For A Farmer', a campaign started by a ten year old boy named Jack Berne from Freshwater, New South Wales. The campaign encouraged school students and staff from organisations around the country to dress up as farmers on Friday 17 August 2018 and donate $5 to raise awareness and funds for the cause. The 'A Fiver For A Farmer' campaign ended up raising $64,196.95 for Rural Aid. As an organisation whose focus is on supporting rural communities, we are proud to have played our part in supporting this campaign which in turn provided dire support for our drought stricken Australian farmers.
