A specialist transport and logistics insurer has sponsored the Burrumbuttock Hay Runners for the fourth year running.
NTI will support Burrumbuttock Hay Runners on their journey to Armidale on Jan. 23-26, to help transport and provide essential resources to drought-stricken farmers, across regional New South Wales and Queensland.
The ongoing Australia bushfire crisis has made the importance of the run even more prominent, NTI said, with the Burrumbuttock Hay Runners becoming one of the early responders, pulling together a team of volunteers and delivered much-needed hay out to fire-impacted farmers in Corryong.
“The team at NTI extend our sincere thanks and would like to congratulate the Burrumbuttock Hay Runners for their quick actions to aid bushfire-stricken communities,” said Tony Clark, NTI CEO. “Our relationship with the Hay Runners is one of genuine admiration and heartfelt support. This year we are filled with more pride than ever to have Brendan Farrell and the Burrumbuttock Hay Runners as one of our longstanding partners. It’s important for NTI to be able to give back to hardworking Australians who dedicate their lives to sustaining agriculture in our unforgiving climate and support the volunteers who donate their time and resources.”
Brendan Farrell, Burrumbuttock Hay Runners founder, thanked NTI for being primary sponsor for the fourth consecutive year.
“We are really happy to have NTI on-board for the fourth time,” Farell said. “It’s great to have a corporate partner who has supported us for such a long time. The drought is only getting worse and it’s time for as many people as possible to just get on it and help out.”
