Flooding in Qld SW
Marine Queensland extends its thanks to all who have been in contact with offers to assist members affected by last week's flood events and urges industry to donate to its fund to support flood-affected businesses.

Marine Queensland has been in touch with members in the affected areas and is now able to provide information on what help is required, and where. Marine Queensland is seeking donations from industry to help these affected businesses get back on their feet.

A 'Qld Marine Industry Flood Assistance Fund' has been established for members to directly donate into.

At this time, cash donations are preferred. All monies received will be divided equally between affected businesses.

Funds can be donated by direct transfer to:

Account Name: Boating Industry Association of Queensland t/a Marine Queensland
BSB: 084 004
Account Number: 18915 7895

A Tax Invoice/Receipt will be forwarded once payment has been cleared.
