Victorian Bushfires

10 February 2009

Some members have enquired about the fundraising appeal to help victims of the Victorian Bushfires.  It has been proposed that the ASU nationally contribute to this fund.  Many ASU members in Victoria have been affected by this disaster.  Should this be agreed by our Branches, each Branch will be levied an amount based on our membership.

If you would like to make a contribution towards the proposed levy, you can do so by visiting our web-site and making a payment on-line.  Please go to our webs-site as described in the attached instructions.

Should the levy not proceed, the Branch will still pass on your contribution directly to the relevant fund.  If the levy does proceed, your donation will be used to defray the cost.  Alternatively you may wish to donate directly to the charity of your choice.

Thank you to those members who have made enquiries about how we can help those who have suffered a terrible loss and continue to need our support.
