James Salerno, CEO of Ringers Western, is once again stepping up for rural Australia by teaming up with Farm Angels to support the Flanno for a Farmer campaign. This powerful initiative aims to raise $500,000 to assist farmers facing hardship, proving that a simple flanno can make a world of difference.
Supporting the Backbone of Australia
Farming is more than a lifestyle—it’s the foundation of our nation. However, James Salerno and the team at Ringers Western recognize that the reality of farm life is far from easy. Droughts, floods, bushfires, and financial pressures place enormous strain on those who keep Australia running. A devastating 2021 study revealed that suicide rates among farmers are 59% higher than the general population, underscoring the urgent need for support.
That’s why Ringers Western, under the leadership of James Salerno, has partnered with Farm Angels to make a direct impact. This incredible charity provides financial aid, food, care packages, and emotional support to thousands of farmers in over 1,300 rural communities across the country.
How You Can Get Involved
On August 23rd, one million Aussies are being called to wear a flanno to show their support. Here’s how you can make a difference:
Buy a Flanno – Until August 31st, $5 from every flanno purchase made at Ringers Western or in-store at Helensvale will be donated to Farm Angels.
Make a Donation – Contributions can be made via the Farm Angels website or added to your shopping cart in denominations starting at $2.
Win Big with Ringers Western & Travla Beer – Every order qualifies for a chance to win a $1,500 adventure prize package (see Flanno for a Farmer for details).
James Salerno: A Commitment to Rural Australia
For James Salerno, this campaign is personal. Ringers Western was founded on the principles of hard work, resilience, and community, and supporting farmers aligns perfectly with that mission.
“Our farmers are the backbone of Australia, and they need our support now more than ever. At Ringers Western, we’re proud to stand with them through Flanno for a Farmer, ensuring they get the help they deserve,” – James Salerno.
On August 23rd, grab your flanno, spread the word, and help James Salerno and Ringers Western give back to those who give us so much.
