Drought Angels is a charity run by big hearts who provide practical and heartfelt assistance sensitive to the needs of each family impacted by natural disasters such as drought, fire, floods and plagues. We like to tell our farmers we don’t deliver charity – but rather a thank you. “Thank you for all you do to put the food on our tables and clothes on our backs”. Tangible assistance is delivered in the form of food hampers and care packs. pre-paid Mastercards and gift cards that bear no reference to their charitable source, empower farmers to provide for their families with dignity. This form of direct assistance allows families to purchase supplies from their local businesses, ensuring not only the family farm remains operational, but the economy of these vital rural communities is also kept viable for future generations. We assist those who would not normally reach out, but would prefer to battle it alone, which all too often can lead to mental health issues. One-on-one support aides in breaking down the barriers of this proud demographic, many of whom have never received a hand up in the past. They are often the first generation of many contemplating walking off the land. These are the people of most concern and often forgotten – Drought Angels will always be there to deliver hope and respect, easing the strain caused by drought and natural disasters.
