* Magnifying reading glasses. Need thousands for the elders who paint to try and get money for some food.
* Tarps that rain cannot seep through (to make houses a little dryer)
* Camping shower bags you hang in a tree for a shower.
The communities use either buckets with dirty water or swim in a croc infested river. They have no running water, septic tank, sewerage, phone, electricity, gas, toilets etc.
* Polar fleece blankets for babies, kids, teens, adults.
* Kids fishing rods, reels, any lures etc.
We have 17,000 people in 47 communities to help. The very poorest of the poor communities only have 4 posts and tin sheets on the roof for a family to live under in the 45 degree heat; freezing cold and the pouring rain.
Does the government help? No!
Do they get Centrelink at all? No!
Do they get mining royalties? Only 10 in every 4,000 and then it is under $100 a year.
