Mum, Clea and I just went into town with our bushfire appeal donations and a huge bag of baby clothes from Tracey to donate. They are taking donations at the Government Offices (enter via the Paterson Street door opposite Sports Power), and also Jodi Campbell's office near Medicare in St John Street (there's a loading zone out the front). There would easily have been at least 100 big bags full of clothing when we went in which is great to see. I asked if they needed volunteers to sort through the clothing, but apparently they are going in a container to Melbourne on Wednesday (and some on Friday) and will be sorted by volunteers there. You can also donate to the charities but make sure you let them know it's for the Victorian bushfire victims. Let's hope they get some relief soon!
