Watch Hawi's Family Story
Many families seeking asylum won’t have work rights or access to social security payments from the government this festive season. Affording food or healthcare will be challenging, as it has been to secure a roof over their heads with limited resources and in the middle of a housing crisis.
Refugee families like Hawi’s* are doing their best to rebuild their lives, but with no rental history or access to their basic human rights, they are at an even further disadvantage.
Your gift has the power to shine a light of hope for refugee families like Hawi’s* this festive season.

"I just wanted to live safely and have a safe birth so we could create a new home for my family in a new country. We moved in with nothing (...) and shortly after, my baby knew it was safe to come into the world...
Hearing her little heart for the first time was a sign of hope.”
Hawi
