In February 2009, a series of bushfires devastated many towns in Victoria, Australia, killing hundreds and leaving thousands homeless. These fires constitute the worst natural disaster in Australia’s history.

Wakaleo Consulting is based in New Zealand, but has many valued friends in Melbourne and Victoria, and in Australia in general. All Wakaleo staff extend their deep sympathy, compassion and prayers to victims of these bushfires.

Alongside many other members of the Australian and New Zealand business communities, Wakaleo Consulting is keen to do what it can to help those in need. As a result, Wakaleo Consulting will be contributing 33% of the profits made from the Sydney, Wellington and Melbourne Java Power Tools Boot Camp training sessions to the Australian Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal.
