“…I need someone to lean on, and someone to depend on. And it becomes hard when you do not have someone to advise you, to guide you, and someone to support you.”
Your tax-deductible donation today will help refugees in Australia reunite with their families after years of separation.
Being surrounded by loved ones can have a life changing impact when refugees try to rebuild their life in a new community, after having fled war and persecution. Family provides emotional and practical support to those navigating the physical and mental impact of the traumatic experiences they have survived. It anchors the individual’s identity and reduces isolation. Family also facilitates economic participation in Australian society and reduces economic burdens.
‘If my children were here, I would play with them; the family would be a family. That peace and support of a family is what I am missing’.
There are men, women and children in Queensland who have been separated from their loved ones for years. Their children, wife or husband are living in unsafe countries, at risk of harm. Your donation will help apply for a visa for family members so they can all reach safety in our community and heal together.
