Melissa Bowman, from Barraba started her role as the NSW Drought Relief Officer, just over three weeks ago.

She has travelled to Molong, Walgett, Wallabadah and Scone meeting with schools, councils, sporting organisations and charities. Next week she will travel to Narrabri, Tamworth and Willow Tree.

Ms Bowman is assisting GIVIT's drought relief manager Scott Barrett to provide support to communities affected by the ongoing dry conditions.

"There's just so much work in NSW, he needed a hand, one person trying to get around 99 per cent of the state that's in drought is too much," she explained.

While Mr Barrett is currently assisting with bushfire relief, Ms Bowman is purely focused on the drought.

As a farmer in a drought affected area, Ms Bowman knows first-hand the impact it has had.

"I'm just really excited to be able to help people because I know how they feel," she said.

"A lot of people don't like asking for help but when you're with them... and you're really trying to get those things to the right people it's just such a wonderful feeling knowing you're able to help and support them during these times."

The drought relief officer said while the state has experienced some good rain recently it is still going to take years to recover.

"Most people have sold a lot of their stock, so they've got no income and then they've got to rebuild. So they're still needing that support even though there's green grass around," Ms Bowman explained.

GIVIT has been running for 10 years and now has more than 3000 charities registered with them. Ms Bowman said GIVIT targets all charities and community groups, or schools.

"We're here to help them in any way we can to keep these communities going and at the same time support the local businesses," she said.

"We need to keep local economies pumping, they're the backbone of a lot of these (drought-affected) communities."

Ms Bowman said she has spoken to a lot of people already who have shared some very sad stories on how the drought has affected them.

"There's a lot of businesses closing down because the farmers haven't had any income in the last couple of years to be able to support their business," she explained.

"A lot of people have sold stock, so income is down."

One of Ms Bowman's aim during her travels is to get the GIVIT name out there and to explain to people just how easy it is to register to help.

"It really is as simple as registering your charity or community organisation with us so we know who needs help and what's needed...," she explained.
