Last counted, the Victorian Bushfires have killed 209 people, but the estimated amount is closer to 300.
This person has summed up the situation more eloquently than I ever could so I'm going to keep it short and say:
Please give generously (Hell, give ANYTHING) to the
Red Cross Bushfire Appeal. They will take donations from $5 (AUD) and up.
Though it sounds cliche, every little bit counts.
If there is anyone out there reading this journal, please, please, please consider donating.
