THE travel industry continues to offer its support to bushfire-affected communities, with Scenic Group announcing it will donate $500,000 to bushfire relief charities across Australia, including the Red Cross Disaster Relief and Recovery Appeal and rural fire services.
Marriott International will also undertake a series of initiatives to gather donations and offer accommodation for volunteers over the next 60 days, as well as host various fundraising events at its individual hotels around the country.
Additionally, Elysee Collective and World Resorts of Distinction have teamed up to launch Australian Spirit Soars, a silent global travel auction with all proceeds being donated to WIRES Wildlife Rescue.
Since its launch less than 48 hours ago, the two-week auction, which will end 27 Jan, has raised more than US$20,000 – CLICK HERE to learn more.
