Refugees are regularly arriving in Australia after fleeing their home country. They are being assisted in their resettlement by organisations across Australia, which provide humanitarian support and material aid.

These families are constantly arriving in Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra, Perth, Brisbane and other towns with no possessions or support networks. Together, we can help them recover from their harrowing experiences, and build new lives in Australia. Click here to see exactly what's needed.

The GIVIT team and platform has helped make a thousand small miracles and comforts happen for our clients who have had to flee their homes in Afghanistan under threat of their lives during a global pandemic. GIVIT has been indispensable to help us connect with generous offers in volume, quickly.

  • Men's and women's underwear, socks and clothes
  • Grocery vouchers

Helping refugee families start the school year on the front foot

Smiggle has donated hundreds of back to school items to West Welcome Wagon, a Melbourne-based not-for-profit that supports asylum seekers and refugees in Melbourne's western suburbs.

Donation of iPads to refugees

GIVIT partners with numerous charities across the country, who support the health and well-being of refugees, whether newly arrived or working to build their lives in Australia. To coincide with National Refugee Week, we were delighted to coordinate a request for two iPads made by the Red Cross in the ACT.
