Working together for bushfire relief

Zurich Australia, in close partnership with the Z Zurich Foundation, has donated $927,599 to bushfire relief efforts through several collaborative initiatives which ran between November 2019 and March 2020.

Our fundraising efforts linked in with employees in Australia and overseas, their families and friends, our customers, suppliers and local distribution network of brokers and advisers. All fundraising initiatives were supported by the Z Zurich Foundation through direct donations and dollar matching.

Excitingly, we raised:

  • Rural Fire Service (RFS), Country Fire Authority (CFA) and other charitable donations: $556,802
  • Australian Red Cross appeal donations: $370,797
  • Total donations to Zurich’s bushfire relief appeal: $927,599

We are also very grateful for the incredible support extended by our key partners who promoted and contributed to the campaign via their own channels. In particular, the AFL, the Melbourne Football Club, the Financial Planning Association, and the Association of Financial Advisers have strongly supported us.

Our flagship activity was supporting the AFL State of Origin for Bushfire Relief match as their largest charitable partner. Through the Z Zurich Foundation, we donated to the AFL Community Relief Fund $10 for every fan who attended the match – raising $510,520.
