Kylie Jenner's generous bushfire donation earlier this year has helped buy a 'heavy-attack' fire truck to battle blazes in Queensland. The American make-up mogul donated $1million to several relief organisations in Australia in January as ferocious bushfires swept across the country, causing widespread destruction. The organisation has put the money towards the truck and specialised bushfire mapping electronic tablets that will help firefighters navigate difficult terrain in low signal areas. The truck was also partially funded by donations from schools and businesses, which have been included in a plaque now emblazoned on the truck. He said the new truck would ensure travellers and locals remain safe this bushfire season.
