[AusNOG] Fwd: IAA Disaster Coordination - support for members and community affected by the fires

[Narelle Clark]

Folks
This message went out today to the members of the Internet Association of
Australia - with many ISP members and since we’re all technical people,
offering practical help is in our nature. Hopefully we can get some of the
local ISPs back on the air as soon as possible.

FYI - it's intended to provide technical support and help get
infrastructure back where we can assist.

If you're in one of the fire affected regions don't be afraid to ask for
practical help.

Let's get people reconnected, folks

Best regards

Narelle

Dear Member,

We are all feeling the impact of the bushfires raging across Australia
right now. I know I've experienced a mix of emotions listening to and
watching the news coverage, the main ones being shock and sympathy.

I'm sure, however, there will be many of our members directly affected, so
with that in mind, we would like to reach out to see if there is anything
we can assist with. Perhaps you have surplus equipment or could donate
something or time to those in need.

We are hearing a lot about regional communications outages; can we use our
expertise and equipment to help get things going again?

Are there any members, or member businesses, in need of equipment or
practical assistance at this time? Is there anything that other members
might have, or could do, that you need?

Please* email donations at internet.asn.au <donations at internet.asn.au>
*or *text/WhatsApp
on +61412297043* and let us know *what you have* to give or* need to get*.

We will place a list of items and needs onto our website,
internet.asn.au/donations
<https://mailout.internet.asn.au/t/i-l-xohril-jjbhjjlq-y/>, that people can
review, and we will look to coordinating distribution. While it won't be
possible to get things into evacuation zones this weekend, as soon as it is
safe we will do our best to get people or gear into areas of need.

Regards,



Narelle Clark
