Donations for the Victorian Bushfire Victims

Post by Stretch »

I'm collecting money for the Victorian Bushfire Victims and I've been door knocking, had a tin up at work (IGA) and have so far raised $122.75.

If any of our members would like to donate to them, feel free to PM me and you can either go direct to Red Cross or through me and I'll add it to the total.

I want to make $250 in total.

I understand if you're aprahensive about sending money to me I just hope you can trust me.

Nice Work Stretch.

Yeah, be careful. There is a proper way to go about doing that sort of thing. (collecting money independently)


All it takes is someone on here to open their mouth to the authorities. And your done. But we all know your legit. Keep it up, they need all the money they can get.
