Priority will be given to those with the most urgent needs. Excess funds will be applied to the restoration of the Observatory site. Donations can be made online or using a donation form.

University House, with the generous support of its suppliers, is hosting a Bushfire Appeal Dinner in support of the staff members and their families who have been affected by the Wambelong fire at Siding Spring Observatory. The 3 course dinner with selected wines will be held in the Great Hall on Friday 25 January at 6pm. The cost is $75 per person, which will go to the ANU Siding Spring Observatory Bush Fire Staff Emergency Relief Fund and the Australian Red Cross.
