"TASC has been so valuable and has given me such peace of mind ... I know that someone is supporting me and I am not alone. It has helped me to sleep again".

These words came from Ivy (not her real name), a woman who TASC supported through our Seniors Legal and Support Service. This service helps those affected by elder abuse in the Toowoomba and Ipswich areas.  

For a few dollars, you can help people in your community, like Ivy, to get access to advice from a qualified lawyer, social worker or professional advocate, who can help them stand up for their legal and human rights and interests.

It's estimated that 50% of the people who qualify for help at a community legal centre like TASC are turned away. TASC helps over 2,000 people each year to gain access to justice. But there is always more we can do, and more people like Ivy we can help.

Most people we help are on a low income and around 6% of people we see are homeless. Over a third are facing domestic and family violence. When you donate to TASC you are supporting people in vulnerable situations including:
– People in financial hardship, people with intellectual disability, individuals with mental illness and people with acquired brain injury, people facing domestic and family violence and elder abuse
– People with extra barriers to getting legal and social work support, like people in regional, rural and remote communities in the South West of Queensland; members of multicultural communities; First Nations people.

TASC is funded by federal and state governments to deliver core services. We gratefully acknowledge and thank the Commonwealth and State Governments for their generous funding. We raise additional funds through grants, donations, and fundraising activities. We gratefully receive donations to support our service delivery and special projects. Additional funding allows us to meet all our community needs, especially in regional, rural and remote Queensland.

If you have benefited from TASC's services and are in position to make a contribution, or are a member of the community wanting to support our work, we encourage you to "GIVE NOW". Simply follow the instructions on this page to donate.
