Australia Red Cross
The Australian Red Cross is an affiliate of the global nonprofit that provides relief in times of crises and help when it is needed most.
They received a grant from the Bain Capital Relief Fund in January 2020 as they were responding to the unprecedented 2019 – 2020 bushfire season in New South Wales and Victoria.

The Australian Red Cross coordinated on the ground disaster relief including evacuations, relief centers, food hampers, programing to connect families who had been separated, and deploying emergency teams where they were needed. They were able to support nearly 50,000 at evacuation centers or over the phone. They also provided $187M AUD in grants to over 5,000 families who lost their homes.
