A Muslim group has donated $10,000 to the NSW Rural Fire Service as bushfires continue to burn around Australia.
On Wednesday, representatives from United Muslims of Australia (UMA) made the donation to firefighters at Wauchope on the state's Mid North Coast.
UMA public relations officer Ibrahim Dadoun said his group put out the call to its members during Friday prayers last week.
Today, we presented a cheque of $10,000 to the Rural Fire Service in Wauchope. We spoke to the locals in Taree and they all commended the efforts of the brave men and women battling the fires in NSW and QLD.
