We’re try...ing to make this as easy as possible for people to get this money. But sadly we’re also getting lots of fraudulent applications. Here’s what we’re doing to get money to those who need it: Going out with iPads to help people without internet access Calling every applicant to verify their details Making sure we have enough information to proceed Carefully checking documents for forgeries Validating addresses against government-supplied information on lost homes Notifying people that payment is on its way For more information or to apply for a grant: http://rcau.org/UQyH50y3Aji

This significant contribution broke our local record, and will make a BIG Difference to people in need. We wish to recognize The Kiama and Minnamurra Lions, the Girl Guides and the pupils from Kiama High School who helped us in supporting this appeal.

01.01.2022 As a junior surgeon, Dr Munjed Al Muderis fled Iraq because he refused to surgically remove the ears of soldiers who deserted. He spent eight months in a detent...ion centre in Australia, where he was known as Number 982. Now he’s world renowned for his contribution to surgery and a proud Red Cross ambassador. Congratulations on being chosen as Australian of the Year for NSW 2020, Dr Munjed. You inspire us every day. #NSW #AusoftheYear
