poodlefan Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) The Qld (and now NSW) floods will clearly rival or surpass the Victorian bushfires in terms of natural disaster and impact on communities. I think the scale of this disaster can only be described as biblical. I'd like to donate but prefer to target my funds/goods towards pets and pet owners (specifically dogs) If people know of relief efforts that require dog stuff or that will target dog owners can they post info on them here. I'm hoping Dogs Qld do as Dogs VIC did and collect and provide information on members affected but if they are also underwater that will be pretty difficult.

poodlefan Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 Copied from Sway's thread: From the CCCQ website They have an account set up with the Commonwealth Bank Name - BSB - 064 000 Account No - 11832323 A virtual dog show (similar to the one held in Victoria after the bushfires) will be held check the CCCQ website in a couple of days to see how you can assist.

Jed Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 DogsQld have given a bank account for donations. I have put up a thread in general about it with bank a/c details. Some DogsQld members are in a bad way\ with houses washed away, and others are helping them where possible. I think the DogsQld office might be having a few problems too, so if no one answers the phone, they are probably too busy with their water wings, try again later!!

SmoothieGirl Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) PF, I was thinking the same. Being in Vic, my best opportunity to help is a financial donation. Perhaps MDBA Pacers is one answer here: http://www.mdbapacers.org.au/index.php?opt...1&Itemid=50 Edit - Got distracted by work crisis, but snap!

koalathebear Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Can someone let me know which of the charities will help 'all dogs' rather than just purebreeds? I suspect that a lot of the dogs on rural properties might be crossbreeds and in any case, as an owner of one purebred and one crossbreed I'd want to save both of mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koalathebear Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Thanks for the info! Just wanted to double-check before I donated because from memory one of the donation links was for purebreds only (totally understandable given the forum) but I would prefer my donation to help dogs in need generally etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmoothieGirl Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Donations over $2 are Tax deductible for Pacers Visit My Website Didn't find the answer on the website, so I'll ask the question some of us want to know here instead. I just made an internet transfer donation to Pacers, how do we prove the donation for the tax man? At the end of the day, I just want the money to help some soggy doggies or other animals, but it might encourage more donations if we knew.
