QBE gives $100,000 to bushfire recovery efforts

QBE has donated $100,000 to support the Red Cross in its bushfire relief and recovery efforts in NSW and Queensland.

The insurer will also match dollar for dollar the donations its employees make to the bushfire financial appeal launched by the humanitarian organisation.

“These funds will support the extraordinary work the Red Cross is doing on the ground and in evacuation centres, providing care and support for devastated communities,” QBE Group CEO Pat Regan said.

QBE announced earlier this month it had agreed to a three-year partnership with the Red Cross and Save the Children to provide disaster relief funds after catastrophes.
