Where is
Edison now?

Edison came to Australia so that he could help others but found himself in the horrible position of asking for help in a strange land.
He told us “I don’t want to cry anymore.” Thanks to the medication, his condition is under control, but he will have to keep taking the drugs for the rest of his life. He hopes to get his permanent residency which will allow him to work more hours and save up for a trip to see his family again.

Edison contacted many different foundations but each time he was told that because he wasn’t an Australian resident, they couldn’t help him. But one did refer him to Anglicare.
Edison couldn’t risk the flight back to Ecuador, thankfully having somebody to talk to at Anglicare has helped him in his darkest hours.
Having a strong medical background, Edison knew that he couldn’t take any risks with his treatment schedule and that his health also depended on a good diet. He started to think of suicide as the only way out. Thank God, Anglicare was there to assist with food vouchers and financial assistance.

Say NO MORE.

Yes, I Will Stand Up for Desperate People!

It’s terrible that in our often self-serving, busy and increasingly complicated world, vulnerable people are falling between the cracks.

This is not right! The people who have the least, need our help the most.

Will you stand with us to say NO MORE?

NO MORE red tape and unfair policies for life-saving medical treatment.
NO MORE disrespect of our elderly.
NO MORE keeping quiet about domestic violence.
NO MORE abuse of refugees.

We can do better, we MUST do better.

We cannot let these unfair policy’s and poor treatment continue. The people who have the least, need our help the most. I stand with Anglicare to say NO MORE to the poor treatment of the most vulnerable people in our society. Our elderly and pensioners should not have to choose between their medication and food or heating. Women and children should not have to choose between homelessness and violence and abuse. Refugees and people seeking asylum should not be locked up while their appeal is processed. People with life-threatening diseases should not be turned away on a technicality of paperwork. Australia is better than this. I stand with Anglicare to say NO MORE to the poor treatment of the most vulnerable people in our society. And I call on every Australian to stand with us and Say NO MORE. Yours sincerely,
