Drought Community Support Initiative
how to apply
If you're a farmer, farm worker or farm supplier/contractor who is 18+ and is struggling financially because of the drought, you may be entitled to receive a one-off payment of up to $3,000 funded by the Australian Government’s Drought Community Support Initiative Round 2, facilitated by St Vincent de Paul Society (Vinnies). This is a once off payment that is not considered taxable income, to assist with groceries, vehicle maintenance, energy & utility bills, health & medical expenses as some examples.
