Yes, My Family WELCOMES Refugees
Children deserve a safe place to grow up
Refugees want to live in peace and safety.
Many people seeking asylum are trying to rebuild their lives in a safe place with their loved ones and secure a future for their children.
Sign your name to stand with refugees and make a statement that your family supports refugees in Australia.
Children deserve to grow up in peace
Did you know that 40% of the world’s refugees are children?
Refugee children are just like yours.
They kick balls inside and pick flowers and draw stick figures and make mud pies and potions. Refugee children and their parents only want a safe place to rebuild their lives with dignity.
People like Meha*, who came to Australia seeking asylum to protect her daughter and see her grow up (into adulthood). She came to Australia hoping to live in peace, like your family gets to.
We must do the right thing by refugee children. They should have the opportunity to grow up in peace like our own kids.
Sign your name to show you welcome refugees and people seeking asylum into your community.
