The Lions Club project will be shifting its donated fodder from depots in Horsham, Goroke and Beulah, and delivering to Glenmore, Scone and Musswellbrook in NSW.
Western Victoria Need for Feed co-ordinator Adam Meek said trucks, drivers and trailers were needed.
“People can register to join on our website,” he said.
“They can also offer to donate to the next Hay Run.
“We do Hay Runs whenever they are needed, and there has been a lot of demand lately.”
He said Wimmera residents had been generous with donating fodder.
“At Garoke, Dilly Drought Drive raised money for 500 bales of hay and now they’ve tasked us to get it up to NSW,” he said.
“Green and Gold Contracting has donated four loads of hay, which will picked up on Friday and sent to Musswellbrook.”
The group leaves on June 22, deliver the next day, and head home on the Sunday.
