Aid Crisis - Give

Humanitarian Aid

for humanKind

Global cuts to aid are causing an urgent, unprecedented humanitarian crisis.

Jump to church resources >>

Governments across the world have slashed funding for humanitarian aid, creating immediate threats to lives, dignity, and decades of humanitarian progress.

Those on the frontlines—aid organisations, local communities, and refugee leaders—are doing everything they can to stretch resources, find new funding, and advocate for solutions. But without urgent financial support, they are running out of time. 

People like you can help bridge the gap—your gift of any size can help keep vital services running. Every day that passes without action pushes people in need even further into crisis. 

No human should have to pay for budget cuts with their safety, their dignity, or their lives.   

Together we can put the human back into humanitarian aid. 

Please act for peace and give urgently today.

HOW YOU CAN HELP

Give. 

By giving today, your church community can help keep essential support available to people in urgent need. Together we can stand in solidarity with those displaced by conflict or disaster and show them that there are still people around the world who care. 

 

Share this appeal with your congregation. 

We have resources available for your church. These can be used to share the devastating effects of the humanitarian aid crisis with your congregation, and ask for their support.

Pray. 

Our partners have asked us to share the following prayer requests with you. Please join us in praying for: 

  • The wellbeing of the communities we support, who are devastatingly affected due to the loss of essential services and support. 
  • Hope and resilience of the people affected, to fight in the face of adversity. 
  • Our local partners, as they face uncertainty due to lack of funding for their projects and staff salaries. 
  • Leaders around the world, that they grow compassion and empathy for people in need. 
  • Our global community, that we can all come together and demand positive change for people in need around the world. 

Advocate. 

Join us in advocating for our government to do more for people who need our help the most by writing to your MP to promote a Safer World for All. Spread the word to your church and community and encourage them to do the same.

Thank you for your generous gift!

Your support will make a real difference for people who have been displaced by conflict or disaster. But there’s something else you can do.

Right now, Australian aid makes up just 0.68% of the Federal Budget. A small increase could have a huge impact for communities in crisis. Will you ask our leaders to do more for people who need our help the most?
