Our Story
Established in 2015, Rural Aid’s vision is to safeguard farming and rural communities before, during and after natural disasters. We stand ready to support farmers when disaster strikes and to offer the help needed at the time.
Rural Aid is also dedicated to supporting a stable future for our farmers to ensure they can keep providing food and fibre for all Australians.
We do this through our innovative programs that increase the resilience and sustainability of farmers, families and rural communities. As an independent charity, we rely on the generosity of our industry partners and supporters who fundraise, donate and volunteer to enable our vision to be realised.
Help them rebuild and recover.

HOW CAN YOU HELP FARMERS IN NEED
The Farm Army is a job posting platform for farmers and workers or volunteers. Farmers can post a variety of jobs on a volunteer or paid basis. They can also offer positions on a contra basis, where applicants work in exchange for meals and/or accommodation. Rural Aid provides the platform where farmers list jobs, but is not involved in the applicant selection process.
