Donate to DRA

In times of flood, bushfire, cyclone or pandemic, Disaster Relief Australia helps affected communities with vital relief and recovery services. As disasters increase in frequency and intensity, it costs an average of $6 million each year to mobilise our teams and keep them on the ground. A week, month or even years later, our volunteers continue to keep communities safe, get people back into their homes and help rebuild lives.
