Australian Bushfire Donation Map
This real-time map shows bushfire incidents and has links to donate to organisations in those affected communities.
We’re reader-supported and may be paid when you visit links to partner sites. We don’t compare all products in the market, but we’re working on it!
We have developed a map that makes it easy to identify communities currently being affected by bushfires and organisations that you can donate to in the affected areas. That should help get funds into those areas more quickly.
Currently the map uses data from the NSW Rural Fire Service. We are looking to expand this as more data becomes available to have national coverage.
Click on a fire on the map to see details of the incident and local support organisations.
