Canberra Refugee Support

Our aim is to help asylum seekers and refugees become as independent as possible as soon as possible.

CRS is incorporated in the ACT and publicly accountable as a result. We are a not-for-profit organisation and all of the members work on a part-time basis in a voluntary capacity. We do not have an office or employees so our overheads are low. Canberra Refugee Support is a member organisation of the Refugee Council of Australia.

We are recognised by the Australian Tax Office as a charitable organisation and donations are tax deductible. We are not funded by government but we do raise funds to help asylum seekers and refugees.
