The power of support
In Australia today we are experiencing a crisis where the basic foundational rights of access to food, shelter, work and education does not exist for all.
Here at Divinity Foundation, our vision is that every man or woman has the divine right to access these basic foundations.
In particular, this means reaching the most vulnerable in our society, those that have fallen through the cracks and are not eligible for welfare. This includes non-citizens without working rights unable to be self sufficient and independent, unable to gain access to healthcare and early intervention for those with complex trauma.

Our Objectives
Our charitable objectives are to address the most basic fundamental rights of access to food, shelter and humanitarian aid.
We relieve poverty by providing this access to vulnerable people in Australia and the Middle East.
We also relieve helplessness of children and young people suffering from mental health through the arts in Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific Islands.
In addition we relieve helplessness of children and young people with complex trauma lacking education and support services in Australia and the Pacific Islands.
Lastly we relieve suffering of the Yidindji people residing on Gimuy in the Cairns local government area in Queensland with support they require.
Did you know?
COVID-19 started an economic tsunami with raging waves of disadvantaging the community with housing, domestic violence, child protection, mental health and education.
Equity Economics estimates that without interventions the following will occur:
- Extreme levels of mental distress will increase
- Homelessness will reach outstanding record levels
- All aged children are at a greater risk of being neglected due to the increased levels of unemployment,
- Every child's educational development will suffer due to the mental distress and neglect.
Community organisations are now shifting towards basic foundational services of food aid and emergency accommodation.
However, preventative and early intervention services especially for those who are in need who require intensive support services have become less important even though the demand is even greater.
Please help us rise to the occasion and ensure intervention is also a priority in addition to meeting the basic needs of their divine rights.
