Evia, Together: Fundraising Auction
Date Published: 25th of August, 2021
In Evia, Greece, on the 3rd of August, 2021 fires began on the island. To date well over 50,000 hectares of land had been burnt; The equivalent of 25,000 MCG grounds. Thousands of families relocated, with homes, towns and villages consumed by fire.
The greek fire brigade, unable to fully contain the fire, reached out to and received support from surrounding nations in an attempt to better contain the fires. Despite the best collaborative efforts, while reading this, fires unfortunately still rage[d] on. Here in Melbourne, and Australia, we have our own struggles. But the knowledge of the Evian struggle occuring on the other side of the world does not mean we are unable to take action, and support the fire containment and recovery efforts of the island from where we are. In two days, Friday the 27th of August, 2021 at 6.30pm, 15 T-Shirts are auctioned to the highest bidders.
The price starts at $50 with ALL PROCEEDS going directly to those affected, and the auction concluding the same night at midnight**There is not a single cent earned by myself in any shape or form throughout this auction. Understanding we all have our own struggles, and some, financial, if you’re unable to bid, please donate directly, if you’re unable to donate directly, please comment and share.
Your support does not, and will not go unrecognised. Thank you for your time and attention,
