D14 HQ East Help for Dairy Project

D14 HQ East Help for Dairy Project This project is about helping Brigades financially effected by the dairy crisis, by coordinating donations from brigades in another area that can help

Help for Dairy is an initiative started by District 14 Headquarters East Brigade. With members who have dairy farming backgrounds, the brigade was aware that some rural communities are doing it tough with the dairy crisis. Brigades in affected communities could find it harder to raise funds, and be unable to approach local businesses already affected by downturn. So an idea formed –a sister progra

m which partners metropolitan brigades with country brigades to raise $1,000. This would assist brigades in dairy impacted areas to purchase small equipment, without the need to approach their community to buy raffle tickets or sell sausages. A cash donation enables brigades to have dignity of choice in how and when they spend the funds. Additionally, sister brigades might also be able to provide training avenues, an exchange visit or surplus equipment. If your brigade or group is interested, please send us an email at [email protected]

Free drought counselling and support by Primary Care Connect to those in Greater Shepparton and Strathbogie shire regions, would be relevant to many people in our area. Get in touch with Tony on 58233200 for more info

We are working with VFBV contacts in donating and receiving Districts, and using mapping from Agriculture Victoria to identify the highest priority brigades. Our aim is to assist 50 brigades across state. We ask that all donating brigades abide by CFA’s fundraising policy
