Sanctuary is celebrating the arrival of one new family of 9 people (mum and dad and 7 children) to our Lismore community, and there is another family of 6 arriving within a few weeks.
Both of these families have waited for a long time for their humanitarian visas to be approved, and are sponsored by both their well established families already settled in Australia, and also Sanctuary Northern Rivers.
We are currently assisting in setting up housing for each family, and welcome financial contributions to the need. Donations are Tax Deductible.
Although financial contributions are currently the most helpful way to support this need, within a few weeks we may also have a list of material needs that will be helpful as the families become more established. If you have items you would like to donate that you think may be useful, please email the information to [email protected]. Photos of items would also be helpful.
Donations can be made by Direct Credit to Sanctuary's bank account, using your Surname and first initial as a reference with the payment. Please ensure you also email [email protected] your contact information when you donate this way, as otherwise we have no means of sending a receipt or contacting the person who has donated.
