On 13 August, Australian Red Cross celebrates 110 years.
We dedicate this milestone to the people we have stood beside through crises, and everyone who continues to make our important work possible – today and tomorrow. Together, we will continue to be there in times of disaster, to promote respect for the laws of war, to treat every human with dignity, and remain a constant for people in need across Australia and through our global movement.
Your donation will help Australian Red Cross support the most vulnerable people in our local communities in Australia and across the Asia Pacific.
Your gift will go to help wherever the needs are greatest. It could give:
a nutritious meal to young people facing homelessness
companionship to older people who are isolated and alone
emotional and practical support to people hit by disaster this summer
emergency financial aid for a family who fled conflict overseas.
Every year someone in our communities needs help from the Australian Red Cross every 90 seconds.
Last year, here's what supporters like you made possible:
More than 324,00 people during and after disasters in Australia
- 33 emergency activations around the country
- Emergency financial aid to more than 3,820 people made vulnerable by migration
- 153,000+ meals delivered to older people
- 66 Australian international aid workers were deployed to help in 33 countries.
