The Queensland floods have devastated homes, livelihoods and taken lives across the state, with the current threat far from over.
Many Foster’s employees have spent the last days and weeks supporting friends and family, assisting customers to repair and maintain businesses, with many preparing their own homes for potential flooding. The recovery effort is likely to continue for many months.
To support these efforts, the business will commit $500,000 in cash and kind to be donated via:
– a donation to the Queensland Premier’s Flood Relief Fund;
– direct assistance to employees and their families who been affected by the floods;
– distribution of non-alcohol products to emergency workers and affected residents; and
– matching employee donations to the Relief Fund.
Customers Please Note:
Customers are advised that allowing for the safety and practicability of delivery and the availability of customers to receive orders, production and distribution facilities for South East Queensland still continue to operate.
