Disaster Relief Australia

Disaster Relief Australia is a not for profit organisation offering veterans a chance to continue their service by helping and empowering those afflicted by disasters, and also themselves. Programs and services are made possible by the support of individual donors, corporate partners, and the dedication of volunteers across the country.

Disasters are our business

Founded in 2016 with the expressed goal of quickly responding to large-scale disasters, Disaster Relief Australia has deployed hundreds of volunteers across the Australia and world to provide relief to communities in need.

Our first disaster relief operation was launched in April 2017 in response to the devastation wrought by Tropical Cyclone Debbie. This operation saw DRA deployed to the hard-hit town of Proserpine in North Queensland. For over three weeks, 62 volunteers worked tirelessly to help the greater Proserpine community recover from the disaster.

Who we serve

When disaster strikes, we work hard to help the most vulnerable in need. By working with or alongside local agencies and governments, Disaster Relief Australia seeks to be of the utmost service to those in need.
