With fires devastating communities and landscapes in East Gippsland, north east Victoria, south west Victoria, southern NSW, and across many other parts of the country, it has been a sombre start to the year.

All those affected by the bushfire—the firefighters, first responders, community members, and wildlife — are front of mind for us.

The scale of these bushfires is unprecedented. It’s why we’d like to invite you to the Friends of the Earth cinemarette (with surround sound) for a screening of the Studio Ghibli classic, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind.

We're asking for donations of $10 for the film. Delicious homemade food and beverages will be available for a donation too. (Please bring cash).

All funds raised will go straight to First Nations communities and Survive Goongerah.

We hope you can join us on Sunday to help raise some funds for communities directly affected by the bushfire crisis.

This event will take place on the lands of the Wurundjeri People of the Kulin Nations. We acknowledge this land was stolen, and that sovereignty was never ceded.
