Fundraising for Australian Red Cross supports our general funds. These funds enable us to prepare, respond and provide relief to individuals, households and communities during disasters, as well as provide ongoing support to people in need in Australia and overseas.
 
During an emergency, Red Cross people - volunteers and staff - work alongside police, fire and other emergency services, government agencies and community partners to ensure communities are effectively supported. After an emergency, Red Cross people are still there working with individuals and communities to help recovery.

Please, start fundraising or donate now.

Australian Red Cross

Australian Red Cross is committed to helping vulnerable people across Australia and the Asia-Pacific. From providing a healthy breakfast and nutrition lessons for kids who would otherwise go to school hungry to helping families separated by war, to working with Australian governments to ensure that the principle of humanity is considered by policy makers, we are there for people in need, no matter who you are, no matter where you live.
Red Cross believes that the power of humanity can make a real difference to those in need. We invite participation by everyone to join together and play a part in making the world a better place.
