Appeal for Homelessness
Make a Donation
Families experiencing homelessness are in urgent need of your help this winter.
When people are forced out of private rentals, they end up living in a range of unstable and unsafe situations like couch-surfing, crisis shelters, tents, or in their cars.
Your gift will give them shelter, and the practical support they need to get their lives back on track.
Select ‘Winter Appeal’ from the drop-down list. All donations above $2 are tax-deductible. Donate by 30 June to earn a tax benefit on your next refund.
How We Help
Every year, the Sisters of Charity Foundation is able to make a difference to thousands of people across the country with funds generously donated by compassionate Australians.
We support initiatives that receive little or no funding from other sources, that benefit disadvantaged, marginalised and socially isolated people in our community; no matter their religion, ethnicity, gender, age or ability. Join us in forging a society where anyone who experiences disadvantage or social isolation can count on swift, practical and compassionate assistance.
Community Grants
We provide grants of up to $20,000 to incredible community organisations and programs that support those experiencing disadvantage or marginalisation.
Scholarships
We help disadvantaged young people from out-of-home care backgrounds transform their lives through tertiary education.
Support for Asylum Seekers
We partner with The Asylum Seekers Centre and the House of Welcome to provide housing assistance and casework support to refugees and people seeking asylum.
Housing for Modern Slavery Survivors
We partner with The Salvation Army to provide transitional housing assistance for survivors of modern slavery and human trafficking in Australia.
Community Care
We provide support to families in remote, rural and regional New South Wales and Queensland who have been badly affected by droughts, bushfires, floods and general economic downturn.
