Give a One Off Donation Give a Regular Donation
The ASRC is there to care for the most vulnerable and at risk asylum seekers in our community, many of whom have nowhere else to turn for help. Around 75 per cent of those we help have no income, no work rights and no access to Centrelink benefits or Medicare.

The ASRC receives less than four per cent of its funds from the State government and is primarily staffed and operated by volunteers. It relies solely on donations from individuals, companies and philanthropic bodies, and on its various fundraising activities, in order to offer a range of programs and services.

How will the funds be used?

When you make a donation to the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre, you are directly supporting asylum seekers. Every week we assist more than 500 people seeking asylum. People who are often traumatised, tired, destitute and in need of support, be it food, medical care, counselling or accessing the right legal advice.

Key Areas of Expenditure

$10 will enable us to provide food for a week to five asylum seekers
