Donate to the appeal
The Premier's Disaster Relief Appeal closed 31 March 2012.
The Premier's Disaster Relief Appeal has been activated to help those affected by wide-spread devastating flooding in South West Queensland.
The town of St George is facing a record flood peak and mandatory evacuations have been required to ensure the safety of the members of the public. There has also been extensive flooding at Mitchell and Roma with Mitchell having already experienced the worst flooding in well over a century.
At this stage the appeal will cover the Balonne, Barcaldine, Blackall-Tambo, Central Highlands, Maranoa, Murweh and Paroo Regional Council areas.
Every dollar donated will be directed toward helping Queenslanders in need. Donations of $2 or more will be tax deductible.
Donating goods: At this time there is no need for goods; a targeted appeal will be launched for specific items in the future if required.
However, consider selling the goods that you want to donate and give the money instead.
