We are grateful to our fundraising and philanthropic donors for their generous contributions.

In the 2022 financial year, our fundraising income contributed $9.8 million toward our vision of an Australia free of poverty.

The financial support we receive from donors allows us to improve and extend our work with individuals, families and communities who experience disadvantage and to undertake research and develop the policies needed to meet the social and economic challenges of persistent poverty. 

Our sincere appreciation and thanks to all individuals, organisations, trusts and foundations, and community groups who have enabled our work with your generous support.
