RSL Queensland’s annual ANZAC Appeal Ambush in central Brisbane is taking a new approach this Anzac Day.
With the help of feedback from over the years, the feature of Tap and Pay terminals for digital donations will make it easier for people to contribute to the Appeal. Simply tap your card to buy ANZAC memorabilia or make a donation.
No need to carry cash, when you can donate in a dash.

All funds donated during the ANZAC Appeal go directly to supporting Queensland veterans and their families in times of need, including crisis accommodation, assist with financial hardship, health and wellbeing programs etc.
