Cue Cares

VICTORIAN BUSHFIRE APPEAL

Myer has launched ‘The Myer Bushfire Appeal’ with the aim of raising as much money as possible for the communities affected by the bushfires.

In support, Cue has donated $40,000 (including contributions from the Cue team) and $10,000 worth of Cue clothing to Myer Bendigo in support of the Appeal. We have been overwhelmed by the number of Cue staff who have generously made donations to the appeal.

On Tuesday 17th February, the Cue Clothing Co. will donate 10% of all sales to ‘The Myer Salvation Army Bushfire Appeal’.

Together with Myer, we ask for you to please give generously in this emergency as all proceeds will go to The Salvation Army who will then distribute money to the hardest hit communities.

Myer Chief Executive Officer, Bernie Brookes said that his thoughts and prayers are with everyone who have been affected by the bushfires. ‘Myer is a pillar of the Victorian community and in tragic times like these we must unite and do all we can to assist those who need our urgent help.’

‘The Myer Bushfire Appeal’ is an opportunity to provide immediate support to the families in the most need and every contribution by customers at Myer stores will make a difference,’ he said.

There are collection points for the ‘Myer Bushfire Appeal’ in all Myer stores nationally.

To the fire fighters and to all the families effected by this terrible disaster – our hearts go out to you, and we will do everything possible to help.

With new designs arriving in store each week – Cue is your destination for a quick-yet-edgy fashion fix. "By interpreting the international looks with figure-friendly cuts, attention to detail and superior fabrics - Cue has crafted its own niche in Australia's market, with a fanatical following to match."
