Lifeline Ballarat currently receives funding of approximately one-third of its annual operating costs from the Victorian Department of Health and Human Services. The remainder of our funding comes from gifts, fundraising, trusts, grants, and from Uniting Ballarat.
Every dollar we raise supports our crisis support and suicide prevention services and importantly, the 13 11 14 Crisis Support Line. Every $39 we raise allows us to answer another call and potentially, save another live. With the high rate of suicide in Australia each year, our work is more important than ever. Donate to Lifeline Ballarat and know that you are making a difference in our community.
We need and value your support. A donation from you or your organisation is welcome at any time.
Please note that any donations made out to Lifeline automatically go to Lifeline Australia. If you would like to donate to your local Lifeline centre, please follow these steps:
All donations are acknowledged and those over $2 are tax deductible.
Individuals and businesses are welcome to donate funds to provide specific training to the Ballarat community around suicide awareness, intervention, and crisis support. Please contact our Community Training Manager for details:
