Aussie's 2025 end-of-year donation
Written by Toby Beshara, Communications Officer

For 2025, it’s our pleasure to donate $15,000 each to Launch Housing and Disaster Relief Australia on behalf of our customers.
These organisations are doing great work, living our value of “being good to people”.
Disaster Relief Australia
Born from the vision of two veterans and now powered by more than 6,900 volunteers nationwide, Disaster Relief Australia (DRA) shows up for communities in their moments of need.
DRA teams provide on‑the‑ground support that includes recovery tasks such as flood debris removal, chainsaw work to remove damaged and fallen trees, and basic home repairs. With an active model of volunteering, DRA also provides veterans with an ongoing sense of purpose and an opportunity to continue to serve once leaving the military.
As bushfire season approaches, their support will be invaluable to so many Australians over the coming summer.
Listen to the stories from DRA’s volunteers below to learn more about their great work:

Launch Housing's Education Pathways Program
Launch Housing is a Victorian-based organisation that’s all about finding fast, practical solutions for those facing homelessness.
The impact of homelessness on children can be felt for a lifetime; from interrupted schooling, trauma, and family instability. This is where Launch Housing’s Education Pathways Program (EPP) steps in.
The EPP works with parents, teachers and caregivers to keep vulnerable children on track by helping with enrolment, school attendance, supplies, and even offering after-school support. The program cares for over 160 Victorian children annually, along with their parents and 90 teachers.
Watch Jy’s story to see how EPP is improving education for children experiencing homelessness:
