Tasmania is in a cost-of-living crisis

Donate today. Every contribution makes a difference.

Our frontline workers tell us that parents and caregivers are working hard to shield their children from financial hardship – but eventually this becomes impossible.

There is simply not enough money to cover the essentials. Parents are forgoing food and cancelling medical appointments so that their children can eat. Children are missing school because their parents can’t afford the fuel.

We invite you to contribute to the Anglicare Christmas Appeal so that Tasmanian families can enjoy the festive season and welcome the New Year knowing that their community cares about them.

Your donation will make a difference for local people experiencing hardship.

Hope is a cornerstone of Anglicare’s guiding values. It sustains us in testing times. Hope gives us confidence that in every situation, we can contribute by extending care to others and working together for the common good. Hope equips us to move forward with purpose, and plan for the future. It brings a sense of peace, even in times of trouble.

Hope strengthens us to reach out and provide support to those around us. This includes older Tasmanians experiencing disconnection and loneliness, and children and young people struggling to make sense of the changes that have disrupted their lives. It includes families of all shapes and sizes, some of whom may not have needed assistance before.

Give HOPE today!

Why donate?

At a time when Tasmanians are facing unprecedented cost of living pressures, a donation to Anglicare has the potential to enrich someone’s life.

It enables us to make one-off purchases for our clients that sit outside program funding. It also means that we can support Tasmanians experiencing hardship through the winter months and during the Christmas season.

Here are some recent examples of how we use donations to support people who are using our services:

A young person living in one of our Youth2Independence facilities had identified an education pathway that suited their skills, experience and aspirations. A pre-requisite for their chosen course was a first aid certificate, but the student’s budget couldn’t stretch to this extra cost. Anglicare used donated funds to pay for the certificate, paving the way for a brighter future for the young person.
A young person in our Supported Youth Program was experiencing upheaval in their day-to-day life but was determined to stay engaged with school. Anglicare purchased a tent and sleeping bag so that they could attend a school camp alongside their peers.
An older Tasmanian moving into a permanent home after a period of homelessness was overjoyed with the donation of some new whitegoods and the payment of their first power bill.
A family whose financial circumstances had changed suddenly after the loss of employment had been unable to cover the cost of their rent. A donation that covered the arrears gave them some valuable breathing space and hope that their situation would improve.
