Recipient story
Elderly couple renting a property have been unable to return due to fire damage.
2026 Victoria Bushfires
Elderly couple in their late 80's were renting a property that was damaged in the fires. They were offered an Airbnb until the property was repaired however the landlord has decided the property needs to be pulled down. They can no longer stay in the Airbnb and have recently secured a private rental property in town.
Lot's of their furniture has been fire damaged and whilst their local church community have been able to donate some furniture items there are still some items they require. Unfortunately this couple has experienced a house fire in the past where they also lost everything they owned. They have not ever really re-cooperated from that loss and have no savings or assets they can sell down to purchase furniture.
They have minimal support outside of their church community and Emergency Recovery Support Program.
