KUALA LUMPUR: Come Feb 1, GraysOnline will host a week-long mega online bushfire auction, giving Australians the opportunity to turn their valuable items into much-needed funds for bushfire relief.
The ongoing bushfire catastrophe engulfing much of south-east Australia has stretched firefighting and animal rescue groups to breaking point. GraysOnline is launching the event to raise much-needed funds for volunteer firefighters and animal welfare.
“Like all Australians, the team at GraysOnline has watched in horror at the devastation caused during the current bushfire crisis,” said GraysOnline managing director, Chris Corbin.
“The team decided to use our auction platform and expertise to launch this major online auction event to raise funds for the people at the front line who are working tirelessly to protect people, homes and animals.”
The company is calling on Australians to donate their valuable or unused items for the major auction, whereby 100 per cent of auction proceeds will go to bushfire relief, according to a statement.
GraysOnline will provide all listings, shipping, marketing and logistics on their leading online auction platform for free.
This one-off mega auction gives individuals and businesses all over Australia the opportunity to join the fund-raising effort supporting important organisations in their efforts to protect people, property and wildlife.
Donations of items for the auction can be made at www.graysonline.com/charityauction. Hundred per cent of the proceeds will be shared equally between NSW RFS, VIC CFA and WIRES. – Bernama
