Lifeline Hobart Inc is asking that you “Throw us a Lifeline” by making a donation.
Lifeline began its services from the simple idea that listeners would be available day and night for people experiencing emotional stress and despair.
It is a challenge to continue to provide a listening ear to the community.
Our Needs:
There are several areas where you may be able to support our service thereby enabling us to increase access to
- Our telephone and face to face counselling services
- Training of volunteers in counselling and suicide intervention skills
- Provision of a Support after Suicide Group
Lifeline Hobart Inc income to date has been generated mostly through our Business Operations and supplemented by a grant from the Department of Health and Human Services. Our resources are often stretched and we ask for your assistance.
We seek donations of goods (to sell through our Retail Centre) and financial resources to maintain present service levels and to look to future development.
How to Make a Donation:
Lifeline has a small donor base –100 – a very generous group of men, women and business friends who contribute annually. If you believe in the work Lifeline is doing and would like to assist by donating please do so by:
- by sending a cheque to Lifeline Hobart Inc, 5 Battery Square, Battery Point 7004.
- by depositing to our "gift fund" through Lifeline Australia Inc .
- by making a credit card donation.
Lifeline has a huge base of community members who donate new and used clothing and bric-a-brac to be sold through our 2 shops
- contact the Lifeline Retail Centre for collection of goods or for the location of your closest Lifeline bin by phoning 03 6231 1882.
You are reaching out to the community and helping thousands of people who have no one else to turn to in a crisis by donating to Lifeline.
