Latest Major Appeal: Clean Water

UnitingWorld has launched its ’Turn $1 into $4′ appeal. This appeal works to supply water to those who need it most in communities in Sudan, Papua New Guinea and India. Under the Australian Government’s AddValue Gifts plan every dollar you donate to the Clean Water Appeal can be turned into up to four dollars.

Recent Appeals: Give the Gift of Life

East Timor (or Timor Leste) is one of Australia’s nearest neighbours but the day to day realities of its people could not be more distant from our own.  For many, everyday is a battle for survival as the country struggles to rebuild itself in the wake of the war for independence. UnitingWorld is working to transform the lives of many communities through health care, income generation and training.
