Being a Staff Supporter

Staff of the University of Newcastle are invited to become a Staff Supporter of The Family Action Centre. The Family Action Centre is a unique University-based Centre. The FAC is entirely funded from State and Federal Government Departments and donations from philanthropic organisations and corporate and private sponsorships. The Centre's programs use a combination of trained volunteers from the community and professional coordinators to assist identified groups of people whose needs are not being met by community services. The knowledge gained through our programs also provides valuable information for research, advocacy dissemination and lobbying, both on a local and a national level. We also undertake research in order to provide the evidence of what works.

From a minimum of $5.00 a fortnight you can become a staff supporter of the Family Action Centre and assist the Family Action Centre to continue to carry out all its important work. This donation is fully tax deductible.

Please print and complete the staff supporter deduction form for payroll to deduct a minimum of $5.00 per fortnight from your salary to be donated to the Family Action Centre. This form should be completed and forwarded by fax to the Family Action Centre, The University of Newcastle.
