AFFMA needs your help!

unnamedDear faithful readers,

This month’s newsletter is about encouraging you to become an active member of our AFFMA team by urging you to assist us in ensuring our charity can continue to provide vital assistance to asylum seekers and refugees in need.

AFFMA has helped protect the lives of refugees, asylum seekers and their families and wishes to carry on doing so. AFFMA does not receive and has not received any funding either from the State or Federal Government. Therefore over the last two years we have relied on public donations to cover the organisation’s administrative costs which include the rent for our premises in Newtown.

We believe that we are if not the only, one of the very few office based charities in Australia that is 100% run by volunteers. This includes all office staff, managers, accountants, lawyers, board members, newsletter staff, migration agents and the CEO. We are all professional people donating our time.

This means that every single cent donated goes towards running the charity and helping refugees get their protection visas.

We are running low on funds and to continue protecting refugees and asylum seekers we need your help. Whether it is a big or small donation, every contribution means so much to our organisation. Please carry on reading to see how you can make a difference and to see what we can do for you.

What is $1?

A dollar essentially does not get you a cup of coffee (decent coffee) in Sydney, however, this $1 can be looked upon as a blessing for AFFMA to continue to help people that have lost their voice. A dollar donated to AFFMA will go towards a great cause that will change someone’s life!

What is in it for you?

  1. When giving to a charity like AFFMA you can be assured that the money you give will go directly to the people you are intending to help.
  2. A Harvard Business School study  suggests that giving to others is directly correlated with an increased sense of happiness. The Harvard researchers write: “Happier people give more and giving makes people happier, such that happiness and giving may operate in a positive feedback loop.”

The bigger the donation the bigger the impact!
