How To Help Australia During the Wild Fires

There are many ways to help Australia and Australians during the wildfires. Here are a few ideas for your daily gives.

1. Share Ahmed’s information and updates on Social media. Let others know the facts.

3. Share images and articles about the Australian Wild fires on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram
4. If you live in Australia, open your home to others who have lost their home in the fires
