Every cent raised will go to the Red Cross Disaster Relief and Recovery Fund which is assisting bushfire affected communities throughout Australia.
"Our thoughts are with the many communities across Australia experiencing these unprecedented bushfires," Bunnings chief operating officer, Debbie Poole said.
"The team at Bunnings want to provide further assistance to those affected by getting back behind the barbecues on January 24 to raise much needed funds.
"Bunnings will provide all materials for the day and team members will work the barbecues in every location."
In the meantime, Bunnings will be accepting monetary donations in-store and online, and any donations made by team members will be matched.
Bunnings team members who volunteer with the CFA, RFS or similar organisations are receiving paid leave for their brave efforts.
"Also, in the coming weeks our local store teams will be heading out into their communities to help with the recovery and rebuilding process," Ms Poole said.
