The 10th World Refugee Day Telethon, powered by the ASRC, IS LIVE!

We are live from our Home of Hope in Footscray to celebrate #WorldRefugeeDay.

Today we come together to stand with people seeking asylum — celebrating resilience, community and hope. Your support helps provide vital services and build a more inclusive Australia.

Join us now. Every dollar counts.

The World Refugee Day Telethon is back!

The World Refugee Day Telethon, powered by the ASRC, is your chance to stand with refugees and people seeking asylum - celebrating their strength, resilience and the incredible diversity they bring to our communities.

Wherever you are in Australia, you can help us raise vital funds to provide food, shelter, healthcare, legal aid and other essential services. Your donations also power the ASRC’s advocacy work to create lasting change.
We’re also donating $5,000 each to five refugee-led organisations to celebrate the vital role refugees play in building thriving, inclusive communities — with the recipients to be announced live on the day!

Expect special guests, live performances, a silent auction and powerful interviews with refugees, community leaders and supporters who are helping create change. The ASRC Telethon is more than a fundraiser - it’s a national movement of solidarity and action.

Meet the ASRC Telethon heroes

Raw, powerful and rooted in community

Frida and Bahaa, leaders of the refugee community in Australia and heroes of the World Refugee Day Telethon 2025, are lending their voices to champion the rights of people seeking asylum and refugees. Their advocacy work aims to amplify the experiences and voices of other people with lived experience to bring awareness to the challenges refugees face around the world.
