In response to the recent devastating bushfires in Western Australia, IGA stores across the state are launching a bushfire appeal.
The supermarket has launched $ 2 tokens that are on sale in all WA IGA stores. All funds raised will be donated to the WA Vinnies Bushfire Recovery Appeal to support affected West Aussies.
WA IGA retailers have teamed up to deliver $ 500 gift cards to the 86 families who lost their homes.
Ben Hepinstall, owner of Supa IGA Stratton, has begun giving free care kits with essentials to families evacuated due to the fires and will now coordinate the registration and distribution of the $ 500 IGA gift cards to the families who are losing their homes.
Before Christmas, IGA and Foodland donated $ 90,000 worth of gift cards to people who lost their homes in the Adelaide fires.
The store also donated $ 355,000 in the form of water, products, and gift cards.
The total amount raised so far, including the Rapid Response Fund, is $ 600,000.
