Connecting with residents of licensed boarding houses and people with disabilities. During the year, used clothing, blankets and excess food is shared with anyone in need.
Each Christmas, we organise a major donation drive for the poor, providing personalised gifts to 900+ people living in boarding houses across NSW.
We work with a range of groups who have similar goals to us to care for homeless people including associations, agencies, advocacy groups, churches, schools, citizens and privately owned businesses.
Research is an ongoing part of our work. It forms the basis for each program we put forward in our advocacy work which aims to improve the system.
There are three ways you can help us at Gethsemane Community, either by volunteering or financially via donations or sponsorship
We accept donations of any amount via our secure payments partner PayPal. If you have an account you'll be prompted to login, otherwise you can donate using your credit card as guest user.
You can assist in the general life of the community by helping with the shopping, the cooking , taking residents to appointments and staying overnight to relieve the coordinator at times.
We need individual and corporate sponsors willing to make a five year commitment to provide support so we can hire a coordinator to run Gethsemane, as well as pay for overnight relief when required.
Your donation will help us provide a home to people who need it most, conduct community outreach to those living in isolation and continue ongoing research that will bolster our advocacy projects.
