| Summary: | After a 7 year drought, it's very clear that our Farmers and their families, the backbone of Australia, are doing it exceptionally tough. The National Farmers' Federation, Channel 9 & Rotary in Australia will work together to raise much needed funds from the very generous Australian public. The National Farmers' Federation will then be able to access these funds and provide support to approved organisations, helping Farmers through this difficult time. Channel Nine will extensively promote the Australia-wide fund raiser on The Today program, ACA and in news bulletins in the coming days and weeks, expecting to raise around $10 million. |
