    BlazeAid is a volunteer-based organisation that works with families and individuals in rural Australia after natural disasters such as fires and floods. BlazeAid base camps were set up within areas of regional Victoria, to help those hardest hit by recent flooding.

    Members of congregations of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints throughout Riverina contributed by donating essential items.

    These were gathered at the Finley Chapel in NSW during the Church’s semi-annual conference for the region. All items were then transported to Bendigo Chapel in Victoria, where Church members collated the packaged snacks into mixed packs.
