The Black Summer bushfires left an indelible mark on our nation. Amidst the tragedy, came incredible stories of help. Now it's our turn to help the helpers, just like NSW Rural Fire Service volunteer, Jackson.
Braving the eye of the storm
Across Australia, there are some 43,000 NSW State Emergency Service volunteers. A group of men and women dedicated to protecting us from danger and helping in disaster. Joseph and his team keep us safe, let's ensure we return the favour.
Mobilising the power of humanity
The scale of the bushfires is still hard to grasp. Amidst the worst of times, came the best of people. More than 3000 Red Cross people helped at more than 150 evacuation and relief centres over the summer bushfires. Natasha was one of them.
