When floods, fires, cyclones and other natural disasters strike local communities, or there is civil unrest and disturbance, we want to respond quickly and practically in meeting urgent humanitarian needs. That’s why we have set up a Community Relief Fund.
The fund allows our teams to support impacted people and communities in a range of practical ways including safe access to water, food provision, medical supplies and temporary relief accommodation. This project is specifically for the emergency relief. Longer term community rebuilding will take shape through other projects.
We have been encouraged by how team members have been able to access the fund and make a tangible difference in their local communities.
This fund has an annual target of $25,000.
Being the hands and feet of Jesus means being ready to respond to the needs of people around us. As our team members play a vital role in their communities they not only meet needs and bring hope, but they also strengthen community connections and build trusting, respectful relationships.
Please note: If a project is fully funded when your gift arrives, we will allocate your gift to a project, team member or ministry that is in the same location or fulfils a similar purpose. All care is taken to ensure project and gift information on this website is accurate and up to date. However, project information may change without notice. If you wish to discuss your project choice, contact our Projects Manager on 1800 329 165 or projects@baptistmissionaustralia.org.
