Messages of support for brave firefighters who risked their lives and battled blazes across Victoria will be displayed throughout Greensborough Plaza.

Members of the community can collect a leaf from the customer service desk at level two for a gold coin donation and write a message of support, before placing it on one of four trees installed at Tables on the Green.

Centre manager Simone Dirckze said the initiative was aimed at helping the community “come together” amid a statewide crisis.

“Let’s come together and show our thanks to the courageous teams on the ground working tirelessly to help Australian communities and raise money for those affected by the bushfires at the same time,” she said.
