First Nations Support

You can give to GIVIT's First Nations Support Appeal, and we'll use your donation to provide exactly what's needed to someone experiencing hardship. Or you can select a request from the list above and FUND it directly.

Not only do financial donations allow support to be provided to someone in need quickly; it also allows Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people experiencing hardship to choose the item that meets their needs, providing them with dignity, independence and self-determination.

You can also donate items, services or volunteer your time by choosing a request in the list above.

GIVIT has over 4,700 registered support organisations around Australia. Many of these are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisations or Aboriginal Corporations, and many other support organisations work with First Nations Australians in need. Staff from these organisations know exactly what the people they're supporting need. This means your generous donation turns into effective, genuine, much-needed assistance

Since 2020, GIVIT has worked with more than 1,100 organisations by providing items or services on behalf of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people they're supporting.
