During April, the Bundaberg State Emergency Service (SES) proudly raised $2,105
through the Friday night community raffles at Bundaberg RSL Club — a fantastic
result that highlights the generosity of local members and guests while supporting
one of the region's most important volunteer emergency service organisations.
Each Friday night at Bundaberg RSL Club, tickets go on sale from 5 pm with draws
starting at 7 pm. Patrons have the chance to win seafood vouchers, meat trays and
other great prizes — all while supporting local community groups such as emergency
services, sporting clubs, charities and volunteer organisations.
What Does the SES Do?
The Bundaberg State Emergency Service (SES) is a volunteer-based emergency
response organisation that provides vital assistance to the community during floods,
storms and other emergency situations. The SES also supports Queensland Police
Service, Queensland Fire Department and other emergency agencies during a range
of incidents and disasters.
SES volunteers play an important role in protecting local communities through:
• Storm and flood response
• Emergency assistance during severe weather events
• Search and rescue support
• Community education and preparedness activities
• Assisting other emergency services during disasters and major incidents
Across the Bundaberg Region, dedicated SES volunteers help prepare, respond and
recover from emergencies, contributing to stronger and more resilient communities.
The Bundaberg RSL Club is passionate about supporting veterans and local
community groups through regular raffles, creating valuable fundraising opportunities
for organisations like the Bundaberg SES to continue their important work.
Friday night raffles are more than just a chance to win great prizes — they are an
opportunity for the community to come together, enjoy a great night out and directly
support the volunteers who are there when help is needed most.
The Bundaberg SES can be found on Facebook, where they regularly share
updates on training, community activities, emergency responses and volunteer
opportunities.
