Skye Wheatley are using their Instagram fame to raise money for the victims of recent bushfires. Last week, Martha, 31, created a second account specifically to sell her designer clothes to
fans, while sharing very flirty pictures in order to attract buyers. 'All money raised is going to charity for the victims of bushfires. Bid in the comments,' Martha wrote in the
description of Martha's Kloset. In just three days days, Martha, who has a 293,000 followers on the platform, has raised a staggering $720 on three pieces of clothing. The items Martha
has sold so far include two Revolve dresses for $160 and $200 and a Bec & Bridge number for $360, with more items to be listed soon. Similarly, Skye Wheatley, who has 611,000 followers,
has donated proceeds from her Instagram filter app, Presets by Skye and Freja, to victims of the recent fires. Alongside business partner Freja Emily, the pair raised an impressive $5,972
in just 29 hours last week. 'Thank you to everyone who purchased a preset pack,' wrote Skye, while sharing a screenshot of her donation to the Wytaliba community bushfire
devastation. At present, more than 50 fires are burning in NSW, with total fire bans in several regions, including the Illawarra and Shoalhaven. Meanwhile, Victoria has a total fire ban in
place across the state and has declared Code Red conditions. According to Nine, the Rural Fire Service said on Tuesday that 577 homes had been destroyed to date this fire season, with six
people losing their lives. Officials are warning the conditions are as bad as Black Saturday when 173 people were burned to death in 2009.
