Panthers commits $200,000 to support drought-stricken farmers

Panthers Group is proud to donate a total of $200,000 to The Big Dry Drought Appeal, supporting drought-stricken farmers facing severe hardship in central west NSW.

The donation consists of a $100,000 contribution from Panthers Group and a $100,000 commitment from Panthers Rugby League.

“Given the gravity of the situation our farmers currently face, we felt compelled to make a contribution,” Panthers Group CEO Brian Fletcher said. “I wish to thank the Panthers Board for their generosity in supporting this most worthy cause.

“While our donation will make a small difference for the farmers doing it tough, we hope it helps draw attention to the critical need for further assistance.”  READ MORE
