"The ICAP funding has warmed hearts, lifted spirits, and minimised the pain of natural disaster. THANK YOU!!"

ReForest Now creates high quality rural jobs with training and potential for career advancement. In 2021, the ICAP Charity Day donation came in during a flood that devastated regions in Australia and directly impacted ReForest Now's staff, making several homeless, destroying cars and causing havoc to the community. Without the ICAP donation, half the staff would have lost their jobs. The funding also enabled ReForest Now to replace lost water pumps, firefighting pumps and tools that were destroyed during the flooding. 36 staff members were supported directly.

"The Australian floods hurt. Staff lost their homes, almost their jobs. ICAP saved us when our government couldn't. We are deeply grateful."

The 4 Aussie Heroes Foundation exists to aid and support first responder and military personnel, past and present, who are suffering and struggling with PTSD and related mental health issues.

(3 day) live-in Programs, free to participants.
