Who we support
As we have said across our web site and social media channels, we are all for live music and the musicians who create / play it.
We would feel guilty receiving money for our lack of talent so while we are having fun, we acknowledge that others are doing it tough. We love the work being done by two amazing not-for-profit organisations - Aussie Hay Runners and BlazeAid.
Any money we make from streaming services, merchandise and any special projects we undertake, will be evenly split between these two wonderful organisations.
Aussie Hay Runners
Aussie Hay Runners (AHR) was founded by Linda Widdup in December 2019 in response to the devastating effects of drought on Australian farmers.
Since then, the organisation has expanded its scope to support farmers facing additional hardships caused by floods, droughts, and bushfires. Many primary producers struggle with financial losses, livestock feed shortages, and emotional distress, making recovery challenging. AHR alleviates these burdens by delivering donated fodder and ensuring farmers have access to mental health support to build back better.
We are a volunteer-driven organisation dedicated to providing benevolent relief to primary producers and rural landholders impacted by natural disasters. Our mission is to supply and transport essential stockfeed (fodder) to affected communities across Australia while also offering mental health support resources and connections to critical services.
We say, "it's not a handout, it's a hand up".
BlazeAid
Born from the ashes of Victoria’s devastating 2009 bushfires, BlazeAid is a grassroots volunteer organisation that helps rural communities recover after natural disasters. Founded by Kevin and Rhonda Butler after their own farm was burnt, BlazeAid has grown into a national movement, with almost 40,000 volunteers, of compassion and resilience.
With a focus on rebuilding farm fences and restoring livelihoods, BlazeAid brings together thousands of volunteers, young and older, local and international, who work side by side with farmers to repair the physical and emotional damage left behind.
What makes BlazeAid amazing isn’t just the work, it’s the spirit. Volunteers live in basecamps, share meals, and form lasting bonds, creating a “family away from home.” For many, it’s a life-changing experience. For farmers, it’s a lifeline.
BlazeAid is powered by compassion, resilience, and community. BlazeAid is proof that ordinary people can do extraordinary things when they come together with purpose and heart. Whether responding to fires, floods, or storms, its mission remains the same: to stand with those who’ve lost everything and help them rebuild, not just fences, but hope.
