DEBORAH Thomas will donate her $167,500 cash bonus to the families of the victims involved in the Dreamworld disaster.
The chief executive of Ardent Leisure, which owns Dreamworld, confirmed she wanted the families to have the money in the wake of the tragedy, which killed four people.
Ms Thomas was today lambasted over potentially receiving up to $800,000 in bonuses for the last financial year.
She said she would donate the short term cash bonus already received.
“I have been deeply affected and saddened by the tragic deaths of Kate Goodchild, Luke Dorsett, Roozbeh Araghi, and Cindy Low at Dreamworld on Tuesday, in particular the impact of this incident on their children and families,’’ she said in a statement.
“I will be making a personal donation of $167,500, which comprises my entire cash bonus, to the Australian Red Cross via the Dreamworld memorial day event.
“Red Cross will ensure 100 per cent is directed to support people affected by this tragic event.”
