Journey for the Aussie Bushfires

All donations go directly to Red Cross Australia and The Salvation Army’s bushfire appeals!

Hi! My name is Veda Surapaneni. I'm an 18 year old Australian, currently on a gap year between high school and university. 

What exactly am I doing?

During January, I will catch the ferry to Devonport, Tasmania, which is where my journey will begin. I will travel around the entire Tasmanian coastline, meeting people and collecting donations for the devastating Aussie bushfires. I will visit communities who have been impacted, providing them with any assistance I can offer.

Where will the money go? 

After reading and seeing the impact the current bushfires - one of the worst in history - has had on firefighters, citizens and native flora and fauna, I decided to advocate for The Australian Red Cross and Salvation Army instead, who are running a disaster, relief and recovery campaign.
