"Supporting Refugees and Asylum Seekers"
Dear Supporters, We miss you!
Thank you for your previous help for refugees and asylum seekers by having your shoes shined, coming to Quiz Nights and Film Nights and all our other events.
Because of Covid, we are not having our usual fundraisers. But the need for funds to support refugees and asylum seekers continues.
Please consider joining us for our "WCoF 2020 Appeal": see our Fundraising page, and donate at our Donate page.
Thank you! We hope to see you at the Willunga Shoeshine again in the future.
The Willunga Circle of Friends is a non political, non religious group of individuals, affiliated with Circle of Friends Australia. We support refugees and asylum seekers in our local community. We do this through:
- Establishing and maintaining friendships with refugees and people who have arrived in Australia seeking asylum
- Advocating : through attending government and agency appointments, medical appointments, filling in forms, attending school interviews and linking people to appropriate resources
- Assisting refugees with living and working in the community
- Informing our local community through fund raising events such as the regular Shoe Shine Stall in Willunga High Street and fund raisers such as Quiz nights, Garage Sales and Film nights.
We raise funds to pay for such things as: sports teams subscriptions, medical and dental costs, tools for those on visas that allow them to work, legal fees, family re-unification, swimming lessons and other direct assistance to the people we support.
