Help Australians, Win Lego!!

As I'm sure many of you already know, Australia is in the middle of a Bushfire Emergency right now. Fires are burning across the country and the combined area that has been burned is bigger than Belgium.

The community spirit has been amazing to support those impacted. Donations of clothes, food, water, accomodation have flowed in.

There have also been some fairly innovative ways to raise money announced as well. Often maligned in the media, Tennis player Nick Kyrgios has said he will donate $200 for every Ace he serves this summer - he served 20 in his first match which is $4000. There have been a number of other players pledge to do the same thing.

Cricketers Glenn Maxwell and Chris Lynn (two of the biggest hitters in T20 cricket) have offered $250 for every six they hit for the remainder of the BBL tournament.

NBL player LaMelo Ball is donating one month of his Salary to the appeal.

But it isn't just celebrities that are doing things either. Social Media model "lilearthangelk" is offering to send nudes to anyone who sends her proof of a donation of $10 or more. She's raised more than $10K from this unique idea so far.

Then there's the deal below that I am actually writing to bring to your attention.

Lego blogger "Jay's Brick Blog" is running a raffle. He has added a PayPal donation button to the post below which sends funds directly to the Bushfire appeal, and for every dollar donated, you get a ticket into the draw for a suite of cool Lego prizes. He is also covering shipping worldwide for the prizes.

I will also be donating the value of Steem raised from this post to the appeal.
