Good Neighbours Australia is part of the Good Neighbours global partnership network which reaches around 9.8 million people in 51 countries each year, including some 218,000 sponsored children.
Launched in 2018, our mandate is to reach out to our neighbours suffering from poverty, disasters and oppression to rebuild hope and achieve self-reliance.
Our development projects focus on education, health, water and sanitation, and creating training and employment opportunities, empowering girls and women in South and Southeast Asia in particular.
The ‘Knit One, Warm One’ project harnesses the efforts of volunteers, from crafty kids to knitting nannies, who’ve filled a shipping container with hand-crafted blankets, beanies, gloves, cardigans, socks, knitted toys and wraps, to send to war-affected Ukrainians every year, since 2022.
Looking for a meaningful group activity for your school, company or organisation? Good Neighbours Australia’s (GNAU) Sydney-based Period Poverty Workshops let your team, school or community group make a genuine difference to a young girl’s life.
GNAU is proud to announce that we recently became accredited by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), responsible for managing Australia’s development program.
