Dear Community Members,
As you all know, Australia is currently experiencing one of the worst bushfire seasons on record. Our thoughts are with those impacted and firefighters who are working to keep everyone safe.
As an integral part of the Australian wider community, we must all help and support however we can to combat this crisis. As Australia’s bushfire crisis continues, there are several ways you can assist those in need. The NSW Rural Fire Service (NSW RFS) noted that while there are many ways you can help, “the best way is to donate money”.
Therefore, BAAWA has decided to run fund raising campaigns in 2 ways –
1. Donation from all community members to BAAWA account
2. By organizing a BBQ sausage sizzle on BAAWA Cup Cricket 2020 – Inter-University T20 Cricket Tournament Final to be held on 27 January 2020.
All funds raised through both these campaigns will be transferred to Australian Red Cross Disaster Recovery and Relief on 28th January 2020.
Those who want to donate via bank transfer before the BBQ, please note that we will be collecting funds till 26th January 2020. Please transfer your donation to the following account with a narration/reference "Bushfire" –
Account Name: BAAWA
BSB: 066-001
Account Number: 10677185
BSB: 066-001
Account Number: 10677185
Reference: "Bushfire"
Please note, we may transfer the funds to Red Cross even before the cut off date if we reach a respectable amount before 28th to provide faster relief, and in that case we will transfer our collection in 2 installments.
Please come forward, and donate generously.
Best wishes,
Tasneemul Galib (Amit)
