SYDNEY, Australia, Jan. 13, 2020 /Medianet International-AsiaNet/ --

Gives Australians the opportunity to turn their valuable items into much needed 
funds for bushfire relief.

The on-going bushfire catastrophe engulfing much of south-east Australia has 
stretched firefighting and animal rescue groups to breaking point. GraysOnline 
is launching a major online auction event to raise much-needed funds for 
volunteer firefighters and animal welfare.

GraysOnline is calling for Australians to donate their valuable, or unused 
items for this major auction. 100% of auction proceeds will go to bushfire 
relief. GraysOnline will provide all listings, shipping, marketing and 
logistics on their leading online auction platform at no cost. 

Australians are urged to donate valuable items including memorabilia, cars, 
boats, machinery and experiences. Businesses can contribute by donating unused 
business assets for the auction. GraysOnline is raising funds for organisations 
that are fighting the fires, as well as caring for a large number of animals 
that continue to be threatened and suffer. 

Chris Corbin, Managing Director of GraysOnline, said "Like all Australians, the 
team at GraysOnline has watched in horror at the devastation caused during the 
current bushfire crisis. The team decided to use our auction platform and 
expertise to launch this major online auction event to raise funds for the 
people at the front line who are working tirelessly to protect people, homes 
and animals."
 
This one-off mega auction gives individuals and businesses all over Australia 
the opportunity to join the fund-raising effort supporting important 
organisations in their efforts to protect people, property and wildlife. And 
they can be confident that 100% of funds raised will go directly to nominated 
organisations, not marketing and administration. 

Donations of items for the auction can be made at 
www.graysonline.com/charityauction. The auction commences on February 1, 2020 
and runs for one week only. 100% of proceeds will be shared equally between NSW 
RFS, VIC CFA and WIRES. 
 
"As Australia's largest auction platform and with one in five Australians on 
our database, GraysOnline is committed to helping rebuild after the devastating 
fires that have affected so many of our customers and vendors. We are calling 
on all Australians to donate their valuable items to support our amazing 
volunteers in their important work", said Chris Corbin. 
 
GraysOnline encourages individuals and businesses all over Australia to join 
the fundraising effort in a meaningful way by donating their valuable items and 
assets. GraysOnline will use its auction platform and expertise to turn these 
items into much-needed funds for organisations on the front line of this 
ongoing crisis.
