Coronavirus Covid 19 - Appeal

The effects of the Covid 19 pandemic have been felt far and wide. We want to assure you that the ISA continues on our mission to support vulnerable Irish citizens living in NSW who are struggling. As the economic crisis escalates, we are experiencing a significant increase in requests for support from young individuals and families. These individuals fall outside of the Government assistance and stimulus packages. Many are struggling with funding the very basic needs.

The effects of the Covid 19 pandemic have been felt far and wide. We want to assure you that the ISA continues on our mission to support vulnerable Irish citizens living in NSW who are struggling. As the economic crisis escalates, we are experiencing a significant increase in requests for support from young individuals and families. These individuals fall outside of the Government assistance and stimulus packages. Many of whom are struggling to fund their very basic needs. We are calling on you, the Irish diaspora, to donate what you can. With this recent increase in demand, the Agency anticipates requests for emergency support will exceed $500,000 in the months ahead. Now more than ever, it is critical that Irish citizens who are in crisis and living in NSW can access our programs to support their financial, mental and physical wellbeing, social inclusion and sense of connection in our community. Any financial support you can assist with is greatly appreciated.
History shows that Irish people are extraordinarily generous, resilient and optimistic and we will not let the current crisis dim that light.
All donations exceeding $2 are tax deductible.
