WE ACCEPT DONATIONS IN MANY FORMS!
Although financial contributions are greatly appreciated by ARA and are a growing need, we are also are very thankful to businesses and organisations that can donate to us in other ways, such as products or services. These in-kind donations are of exceptional assistance. We are able to use some of the products and services for our projects and programs or alternatively can include them in other fundraising initiatives (eg raffles).
ARA fundraisers are united in their passion to help new arrivals feel like they’re home. Without their support, we couldn’t deliver our tailored services and programs. What will you do to help them?

While there are various packages available, we are also open to hearing from you regarding how you’d like to direct your finances and resources.

You could attach your brand to an event and leverage our campaign reach while also meeting your corporate social responsibility goals. Our sponsorship packages are flexible.
