Generosity that Counts
One thing that the Melbourne Market community never fails to show is generosity. When the devastating bushfires swept over Australia, the upset was felt around the country. Some lost their homes, some lost their crops, and tragically some lost their lives. It was a disaster that won’t soon be forgotten.
To support those who have been affected, Fresh State and the Melbourne Market Authority set up a bushfire disaster appeal, to allow the Market community to come together, show their support and raise donations. The Melbourne Market community raised a great total of $34,775.35, which will go directly towards the Victorian Bushfire Appeal. Both Fresh State and the MMA donated $10,000 each, and other significant contributors included Produce Time, Fresh Mix Produce, Hai Ha Supplies, and Biodynamic Marketing. Thank you to all who donated, your contribution is extremely appreciated and will help rebuild the lives of those affected by the fires. Our gratitude goes out to our emergency services and volunteers and our deepest sympathies to all those who were impacted.
