Support for Refugees

All over Australia

Refugees & asylum seekers from all over the world are regularly arriving in Australia ready to rebuild their lives.

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 or look at the list below 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.

The personal situations and circumstances of the refugees arriving vary from person to person. This means there are many different item requests, and these are subject to change. Commonly requested items include:

Toiletries
Nappies, baby items and toys
Men's and women's underwear, socks and clothes
Grocery vouchers
Laptops and computers
Art supplies

To see refugee-related requests from your local area, use the filter options in the list above to narrow down the list so you see items needed for refugees near you.

You can donate money to help refugees by clicking the FUND button next to the item that you'd like to donate towards. 100% of your donation received by GIVIT will be used to purchase these items.

Your donation will help people like Matthew, an Iranian refugee, who received a bike through GIVIT to travel between his homeless accommodation and his workplace

What do a single mum of five, a homeless refugee from South Sudan, and a family who were robbed have in common? They've all been helped by GIVIT's donors via the tireless work of Multicultural Hub Canberra.
