Whether it be floods, bushfires or drought, Disaster Relief Australia (DRA) will be able to provide additional emergency assistance to Australians impacted by a range of natural disasters with the assistance of a $100,000 donation from Keno.
The latest donation continues Keno’s commitment to DRA and follows another $100,000 donation made in December 2019 for the Black Summer bushfires – one of the worst bushfire seasons in Australia’s history.
DRA unites the skills and experiences of military veterans, emergency responders and civilians to rapidly deploy relief response teams around the country in the wake of a natural emergency.
DRA CEO Geoff Evans said the donation from Keno would be used for ongoing operations, including bushfire recovery in New South Wales.
“It’s thanks to our generous partners, like Keno, that we are able to continue to serve communities affected by a disaster, which brings them hope,” he said.
“We are proud of the ongoing relationship we have with Keno and grateful it gives us the ability to respond to more disasters."
“Keno’s previous $100,000 donation was used for the Black Summer Bushfires of 2019 and 2020 and helped us deploy over 600 veterans to fire-affected communities for over five months."
“Keno's support not only resulted in assistance being provided to hundreds of devastated survivors of the bushfires but has also enhanced our capacity to respond to similar events.”
