Rio Tinto has donated A$750,000 to support disaster relief
efforts for those impacted by the widespread floods in North
Queensland.
The funds will support the work of key organisations, including
the Queensland Royal Flying Doctors Service (RFDS) and the
Queensland Red Cross, which are providing medical care, running
evacuation centres and helping people recover from the
disaster.
Rio Tinto Chief Executive, Australia, Kellie Parker said: “Our
hearts go out to everyone in the communities affected by the
devastating floods, who include our team members and local
suppliers and partners.
“We’re grateful for the extraordinary efforts of the Queensland
Red Cross and the Queensland Royal Flying Doctors and hope this
contribution helps them continue to provide much-needed support to
those in crisis.
“North Queenslanders have shown incredible resilience, and these
organisations are making a real difference for those in need.”
To further assist, Rio Tinto will match any employee donations
to flood relief efforts.
The donation is part of Rio Tinto’s disaster relief program,
which provides support in times of need to communities where the
company operates.
