Bunnings stores across the land will be firing up the BBQ, with every cent raised in the day going to GIVIT.
Bunnings Chief Operating Officer, Debbie Poole, said she was pleased the team could pick up the BBQ tongs and help support those affected.
"As a part of those local communities who have been affected, we want to help. Many of our regional teams have already been assisting impacted communities on a local level but we had team members from all over Australia also wanting to lend a hand for these two important causes," Ms Poole said.
"Our team members always embrace the opportunity to get behind the BBQ themselves to help out. We are pleased to be partnering with GIVIT who do incredible work supporting communities who need it most.

"We are also committed to purchasing locally wherever possible to support the economic recovery of these affected areas," Ms Tennant said.
