Heresy had intended to hold our Austrian company launch + environmental fundraiser (for a local enviro cause) in Fiss on February 21st @ Dorfstadl, but the local crew, after seeing the horrible destruction as a result of the Victorian bushfires, asked that we make this a fundraiser for the RSPCA and Red Cross and we thought that was an amazing idea.
I am constantly amazed at our community; they take Heresy and it's ideals and add to it and help it be better and grow and truly make a difference. It is truly humbling.
If anyone you know is in the Fiss area around 20-22 Feb, please shoot them the Facebook event or send this post to them.
The flier is below. You are free to download it and distribute it. The photos are not ours but we have attributed credit on the flyer (sorry photogs, it's for a good cause).
The ongoing scenes from the affected communities are truly heartbreaking but the subsequent sense of grit and determination in those communities has made me proud to be part of not just humanity but especially proud to be Australian. Seeing the victims - some whom have lost daughters, sons, wives, husbands, parents - grieve publicly without shame, then grit their teeth, set their jaws, shoulders and backs firm with resolve to do what needs to be done, truly shows what being Australian and human is all about. Rising above adversity and pain to raise the sun on a better and brighter day. It is moments like this that for me despair is banished and hope springs eternal.
No-one is untouched by this and our hearts have broken as we have watched and felt your loss on the news, in the papers, on the net, or in person as our fellow volunteers, Army, police, SES, fire and ambulance crews have helped ease the burden. Know that we are all hoping and praying for your speedy recovery.
To all the international community, Australia thanks you for all your messages of heartfelt support.
If you can, your support is needed.
Thanks for reading.
