Is my donation to Wesley Mission tax-deductible?
Yes. Wesley Mission is registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC) and endorsed by the Australian Taxation Office as a Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR). All donations of $2 or more are tax-deductible. You'll receive a receipt by email for your records.
Can I trust Wesley Misison with my gift?

You can read real stories of impact at wesleymission.org.au/news-and-stories.
How much of donations and other funding goes directly to services?
82 cents in every dollar of funding is used directly in delivering community services. That means 18 cents in every dollar gets spent on administration to help ensure our services are safe, effective and sustainable for the people who rely on us.
What causes can I support with my donation?
You can make a general donation to Wesley Mission's work, or direct your gift to a specific area - such as homelessness services, mental health support, helping Families and Children, or seniors support. Contact fundraising@wesleymission.org.au or call 1800 021 821 to discuss directing your gift.
How many people does Wesley Mission help each year?

What is the difference between a one-off and a monthly donation?
A one-off gift provides immediate support for people in crisis. A monthly gift - through our Partners in Hope program - creates something more powerful: a reliable, ongoing source of funding that allows Wesley Mission to plan long-term programs, employ dedicated staff, and respond quickly when need spikes. Even $10 a month makes a meaningful difference over a year.
Does Wesley Mission help people experiencing homelessness?
Yes. Wesley Mission has operated homelessness services in Sydney and for over 40 years. We provide crisis accommodation, transitional housing, emergency relief, case management, and long-term housing solutions through Wesley Community Housing. Wesley Edward Eagar Centre in Sydney's Surry Hills has been a haven for people experiencing homelessness since 1979. We have services for single, people, families, young people across Sydney, as well as targeted services in Gosford and Coffs Harbour.

Wesley Mission founded Lifeline in Sydney in 1963 under Reverend Alan Walker. The service grew nationally, became government-funded, and is now an independent organisation. Wesley Mission continues to operate two Lifeline centres - Lifeline Sydney and Lifeline Sutherland - as part of the national network of over 40 centres. We are proud to have started this life-saving service and remain actively involved today.
