The Telethon kicks off in...
SAVE THE DATE: 20 JUNE
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 to five refugee-led groups or movements 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. This Telethon is more than a fundraiser - it’s a national movement of solidarity and action.
Meet our Telethon heroes
Raw, powerful and rooted in community

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.
