We’re passionate and determined to change the lives of Coptic Christian families and children living in poverty in Egypt and Fiji through our Family-to-Family Sponsorship Program and other initiatives.
For just $60 per month, you can help struggling families so they have improved living standards and can buy food and clothing. We also provide access to healthcare and educational support.
We want to make a real difference in the lives of people who are less fortunate and struggle day to day to make ends meet. As a passionate group of volunteers, we donate our time to raise much-needed funds to support these families in need.
We currently support 981 poverty-stricken families through our Family-to-Family Sponsorship Program in Egypt, including but not limited to El Monifia, Deshina, Tanta and Hadek El Koda. We provide Special Needs funding for families who face urgent need due to sickness, housing difficulties, marriage preparation or difficulty accessing education. We also raise funds for national and international emergencies through our Emergency Appeal.
All donations of $2 and over are tax-deductible.
Easter marks a special time on the Coptic Orthodox Church calendar as we remember the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. He gave the ultimate sacrifice on the cross to pave the way for us to receive new life and hope for the life to come.
Many families in Egypt and Fiji survive on the bare necessities for most of the year and simply cannot afford special food to celebrate Easter when families gather around the table. We provide Easter Hampers that include items such as milk, eggs, cheese, chicken, pasta, rice, tea, and other things we take for granted.
Your gift for the Easter Hamper Appeal means families living in poverty get to enjoy a special feast during a memorable time of the year.
Christmas is one of the highlights of the Coptic Orthodox Church calendar, remembering the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. It’s a time for families to get together and celebrate this unique moment in history.
Here in Australia, we celebrate Christmas by gathering around the table and sharing lots of special food. We often take for granted the delicacies we eat this time of year.
In the true spirit of Christmas, we raise funds to put together thousands of Christmas food hampers to bless less fortunate families in Egypt. A typical hamper includes milk, eggs, cheese, chicken, pasta, rice, tea and other food items these families could never afford.
We believe it’s important to provide financial support in the event of natural disasters and tragic events that require humanitarian aid, whether in Australia or around the world.
St Abraam, the Bishop of Faiyum and Giza, was known as the Friend of the Poor and declared a Saint in 1964. His life was dedicated to serving the poor and rich alike. He never turned anyone away and opened the doors of the diocese to create a refuge for thousands of the poor.
His example inspires us to serve those who are less fortunate by donating our time and money to help change the lives of Coptic families who struggle from day to day.
