Here's How You Can Help: Brisbane Events Raising Money for Flood-Affected Communities and Businesses
Summer, Brisbane and soggy weather always go hand in hand, but the deluge that's rained down on the city in 2022 has been something else. Eleven years after the last flood, Brissie is waterlogged again after a wet and wild end to February.
To support the communities and businesses affected, local businesses across Brisbane are hosting fundraising events. There are beers to drink, live gigs to watch, cakes to eat and darts to throw — all for a good cause.
Of course, you can also donate directly to charities and organisations, including Givit, the Red Cross Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund, Vinnies Flood Appeal, Queensland State Emergency Service and Queensland Rural Fire Service. And, when the weather allows it, you can get out on the ground and assist via the Mud Army 2.0, too.
If you know of any flood-relief fundraising events happening across Brisbane, let us know at [email protected].
