Why donate
The Aboriginal Embassy stands for the well-being and self-determination of Aboriginal peoples. Grounded in grassroots action, the Embassy is run under Aboriginal cultural protocols, and it held in high regard amongst Aboriginal people.
We are not funded by the Australian government. The Embassy will not accept funding from sources when it is inapproriate. The Embassy does not receive regular on-going funding from PayTheRent.
Donating here is the best way to make sure your donation goes directly to the Aboriginal Embassy in Canberra.
Volunteers run the Embassy. Some volunteers live on-site as caretakers, others work from afar. Many hours of work is done unpaid – such as maintaining a physical presence on-site, keeping the sacred fire burning, organising large events such as those on Invasion Day, meetings, organising actions, research, and running the Embassys on-line presence including a Facebook page with 32,000 followers.
What we need funds for
- feeding on-site volunteers maintaining the continuous (since 1992) on-site presence
- firewood for the sacred fire
- travel costs to enable running of face-to-face meetings
- simple administration costs such as internet data, electricity and other office costs for the Embassy site
- expanding our media capabilities
- building up funds to plan and host large events (including solidarity actions).
Please consider donating to the Embassy.
If you would like to offer other kinds of help, such as helping with tasks or materials, contact us. Tell us your strengths - and together we can lift up the Embassy and free ourselves from the penal settlement masquerading as an international State.
