“It’s not a hand out, it’s a hand up.” That’s the guiding principle behind the small group of volunteers who are on a mission to deliver hay to farmers dealing with the aftermath of natural disasters.
Since 2019, the Aussie Hay Runners has delivered more than 30,400 bales of hay to farmers, bales donated or bought with donations worth over $2.8 million.
