REQUEST:Home furniture and appliances and warm blankets for Bild refugee mother
Other hardship(s)
I am supporting a recently arrived refugee family (mother and her daughter) settled in Australia in late April 2026 is currently experiencing financial hardship while awaiting access to longer-term supports, including NDIS funding.
The mother presents with multiple vulnerabilities, including visual impairment, Type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and a history of torture and trauma. Despite these challenges, she is trying to send her daughter to school to receives education. However, due to increased rental costs and limited financial resources, the family is currently unable to meet essential household and living needs.
Current Needs
Coffee table
Clothes drying rack
Microwave (critical, as the client is unable to safely use the cooktop without support due to visual impairment)
Child Needs:
Dressing table with mirror (to support daily routines and personal organisation for the child)
Warm blankets to assist the family in adjusting to colder weather conditions as winter approaches
