The page was created by Michael Wood in a bid to help Wagga veteran Brad Fewson, who requires oxygen therapy treatment he currently has to be in Melbourne to receive, as well as those alike.

Mr Wood said he never could have imagined the page would reach its goal as quickly as it has.

The TGA approved chamber will be installed at the Pro Patria Centre, Wagga's veteran health hub, which will serve Mr Fewson and as well as other local veterans.

An emotional Mr Fewson said he is thankful to the community and businesses for their support.

But, the fundraising efforts won't stop there with charitable events already planned for early 2022 which could see funds spill over $100,000.

Pro Patria Centre's veteran Damien Nye said a chamber has officially been secured and will be in use early next year for all veterans who need it.

"The remainder of the funds will go into building works at Pro Patria that are needed to put in fire escapes, widening doorways, etc... so it can be used for medical reasons," Mr Nye said.

My Nye, also a member of Riverina Car Muster, has been locally coordinating charity events including a charity muster at Tolland Hotel which was held on December 4 to raise funds for the cause.

Next on his list is The Burnout Bash for Brad, which is currently set to run on February 12 at the Wagga International Speedway.

"The Burnout Bash for Brad, thanks to major sponsors ABC TYRES, Swift Service Centre, Riverina Coatings and Tolland Hotel will be able to raise the money for the building works, along with the donation of a car valued at $10,000 we are currently raffling off from Advanced Towing," Mr Nye said.

Mr Nye said it is thanks to the Riverina community that this is even possible.

"Without the Riverina jumping aboard and backing us we would never have got there," he said.

"Charity's such as Pineapple Express donating $10k and Young Veterans donating 15k, it's got us to a point where we can now concentrate on getting Pro Patria up to where it needs to be."
