My name’s Jack. I’m an Aussie farmer from regional Queensland and I’m struggling more than ever to make ends meet. It’s the worst drought on record out here- unless we get more help our families and local businesses will collapse.

My family’s forked out so much to feed our cattle, but our finances have dried up with this cruel drought - I just don’t know how much more we can take.

Our livestock are dying and everyone is desperate.

The big supermarkets have done media stories about their support for local produce and Aussie growers – but we really need more help. Us farmers need cash. To put food on the table, and help us hold off the banks from repossessing our properties.

Coles and Woolworths, we need you to back us farmers. Please sign my petition asking them to initiate a ‘Dollar For Drought’ appeal at their cash registers, asking customers to donate a gold coin to help Aussie farmers in need.

I can't thank you enough for reading and backing us.
