For more than 110 years, Australian Red Cross has helped people facing vulnerability and crisis. Our work relies on the generosity of supporters who enable us to help those recovering from extreme weather, offer companionship to lonely seniors, and support families seeking safety after conflict. Your regular donations can help our volunteers and staff be there when it matters most. As humanitarian challenges increase, your kindness lets those in need know they are not alone.
With your ongoing support, we can help someone every 90 seconds
Your regular donation funds our efforts to support those who need it most. It enables our teams to be on call, ready to help 24/7, every day of the year.
Our teams are deployed daily here in Australia and beyond the Pacific to aid and support people in various crises and situations.
The regular giving community is essential to our commitment. We count on donations every four weeks to fund resources, vital programs and trained staff with confidence.

About your donation to Red Cross
Yes, donations of gifts over $2 are tax deductible in Australia. If you receive a material benefit for your donation then it is not tax deductible: for example, if you receive points or another material benefit from your credit card provider.
You will receive a receipt in your name.
Your donation will help Red Cross support the most vulnerable people in communities in Australia and across the world. Your gift will go to help wherever the needs are greatest. That could be:
- companionship for older people who are isolated and alone
- emotional and practical support to someone affected by a disaster
- emergency financial aid for a family who fled conflict overseas and is starting over
- and so much more.
Every year, in Australia, we help someone every 90 seconds. Here are some of the great things supporters like you made possible in the 2023/2024 financial year:
- support for 213,000 people before, during and after disasters.
- 78,401 hours of volunteers connecting with older and vulnerable people through our Telecross and Telechat programs.
- much-needed support for more than 23,600 people from 129 countries through our migration support programs in Australia.
- 43 Australian international aid workers were deployed to help in 22 countries.
If you donate a gift to an organisation classified as a ‘deductible gift recipient’ (like Australian Red Cross), you can claim a tax deduction on your tax return for that year for your donation. If you receive a material benefit for your donation then it is not tax deductible: for example, if you receive points or another material benefit from your credit card provider. Donating to a deductible gift recipient will likely reduce your overall taxable income, which in turn may reduce the amount of tax you are required to pay.
You must donate at least $2 and keep proof in the form of a receipt or bank statement. When you donate to Australian Red Cross, we’ll send you a tax receipt. The more you donate, the more you may claim back. Find out more »
Every day, people like you are helping to make a real difference in the lives of those who are vulnerable through our regular giving program.
Our regular givers support our work by automatically donating every four weeks, either by credit card or direct debit. Their ongoing support means we can be there for people facing crisis in Australia and beyond for years to come.
We would love to help you answer any questions. Please call 1800 733 276 or email contactus@redcross.org.au. For security reasons, don't include your credit card details in your email.
