Become a Disability Rights Defender!

You can help change lives and make a significant difference to the work of PWD by making a regular, monthly, tax-deductible donation. Regular donations help us pursue essential projects, such as free Individual and Group Advocacy services for people with disability and provide information and training to people with disability and their associates.

Your ongoing support allows us to confidently plan ahead, knowing that funds will be available to support our programs, rather than relying the government at the time to support our projects.

Ongoing non-government support by our Disability Rights Defenders also gives us greater freedom to openly critique the government, ministers and government departments and hold them accountable to the CRPD and their own laws.

We keep our Disability Rights Defenders informed with regular newsletters and updates to let you know how we are using your donations!

As a Disability Rights Defender, you will receive:

A personal letter of thanks and appreciation every year from PWD
Our monthly EBulletin on our work and global development and the disability rights movement
Invitations to PWD Events
Only one tax-receipt that will be sent to you at the end of the financial year. (All donations over $2 are tax-deductible)
The knowledge that you are creating real and actual change for people with disability, working together towards and more just and accessible community.
