'Powerful woman making a positive change': Elyse Knowles joins Celeste Barber as she praises the comedian for her bushfire relief efforts”

High profile Australians have been doing their part to support victims of the bushfires currently ravaging the country.

And on Friday, model Elyse Knowles and Instagram comedian Celeste Barber teamed up to volunteer at a bushfire relief centre. 

Taking to Instagram, Myer ambassador Elyse, 27, shared four pictures from the relief centre, including three of her and Celeste embracing each other. 

'Powerful woman making positive change globally Celeste Barber,' Elyse captioned the post. 

Later in the day, Elyse posted a bikini-clad clip to Instagram thanking her followers for raising money for animal feed. 

'Guys you have raised over $17,500 which is 400 bails heading off in the Gippsland area for all the cattle and animals that need food. So well done,' she said. 

This isn't the first time Celeste and Elyse have crossed paths as the Instagram comedian has poked fun at the model in the past.  

The pair collaborated in 2019 on a video to promote meal delivery service Hello Fresh.

Both Celeste and Elyse have been quite vocal about the Australian bushfires, with the comedian raising almost $50million via a Facebook fundraiser. 

The current Australian bushfire season has scorched at least seven million hectares of bushland, killed 26 people and destroyed one billion animals.
