A smarter way to give for disaster recovery
In the wake of disaster, communities usually end up with a bigger headache - piles of donated goods that aren't needed or suitable, and which end up as landfill.

Donations of cash are also tax deductible.  https://uat.givit.org.au/about-us/our-work-in-disasters
