Queensland Flood Appeal

Photobucket

For those who missed my last post about this, if you can help with the flood disaster in Queensland by bidding or writing in [livejournal.com profile] waltzmatildah's fic auction - or even just by donating or raising awareness about what's going on over there by pimping it out I would be so amazingly grateful.

I've also just put myself up for bids here - if anybody would prefer to get icons from me instead.

I just...there's nothing else on the news but this flood at the moment and it's only getting worse. There's an area the size of Texas underwater and it's so deep in places that some people are having to duck underneath powerlines as they travel through via boat.

Just, please, please if you can, try to help out.

I hate seeing all the flooding there :( People from all over the world helped when Hurricane Katrina totally destroyed the Mississippi gulf coast, and I'd like to do something for Australia but don't know what.

Even just raising awareness about it on your journal would be amazing darling. Honestly, the more that people know about it and how devastating it is, the more likely they'll be to help out in whatever way they can.

*hugs*

I was just watching more about this on tv. It's all over our news, too. So sad. *hugs australia*

It has been so incredibly sad. And scary for me, seeing all these places in Brisbane that I visited two years ago underwater. Blair's okay thank goodness - the water never completely reached her house but it's still been scary.
