Your impact

How your support has helped

Aruma is a not-for-profit, for-purpose organisation committed to helping all people with a disability live a great life. It’s the reason we exist.

Last year, a total of 52,647 generous people donated more than an incredible $5.4 million, smashing our target of $5m.

Because of you, we were able to deliver additional services for the people we support.

This has included:

• Accommodation and equipment for people with a disability seriously impacted by the Townsville flood disaster
• An upgrade to our Early Childhood Intervention facilities in Burleigh Heads, Qld, and Lismore, NSW
• A much-needed kitchen in our respite service in Grafton, NSW
• An extended soccer program in the Hunter for kids with disability aged 7–13
• And of course much, much more.

Where we still need your support

This year our hope is to raise $6 million. We greatly value your commitment to helping people with a disability live a great life and your generous donations will go towards:

• Critical COVID-19 safety equipment like masks, thermometers, gloves, and hand sanitiser
• Further boosting supported employment opportunities
• Create health and social programs for families of children with a disability
• Provide additional training to build workplace skills for school-leavers
• Giving people with a disability a place to call home in supported accommodation.
