Dealer Solutions team donate to Red Cross Victorian Bush Fire Appeal.

In just 5 days the Dealer Solutions team have contributed almost two thousand dollars to assist the survivors of this tragedy.

Victoria’s bush fire tragedy was drawn even closer to home with the story and pictures (right) sent by Chantel Collins, one of Dealer Solutions photography team in the Melbourne office.

Chantel has an uncle who lives in Yarra Glen who fortunately survived the fire. Chantel is sure that his experience as a CFA Chief would have helped him though Black Saturday. It seems everybody in Victoria knows someone whose life has been touched by this catastrophe.

Dealer Solutions CEO Chris Vening is proud of his team’s efforts to make a difference. "I would like to say thank you to everyone who put their hand in their pocket and say how proud I am of our effort. This donation shows the Australian Spirit is alive and well and that everyone can help make a difference, regardless of where we live or work."

Chantel took the shots to the right from near her own house looking towards Yarra Glen and says the devastation is unbelievable. When she visited Yarra Glen last Sunday, she said ash was still falling from the sky.
