Donations

For generations, our Elders have carried the stories, language and wisdom that connect our past with our future.

Aboriginal Community Services is dedicated to honouring and caring for Elders through culturally safe and respectful aged care services — both in our residential aged care home and through home care services that support more than 430 Elders across South Australia.

As a fully funded provider through Commonwealth aged care grants — and with the support of generous donors and bequests — we continue to deliver high-quality, culturally appropriate care to our Elders.

However, changes to the national home care service model and funding arrangements mean some Elders may face service gaps in the support they receive. Your donation helps ensure that no Elder is left behind.

Why donate?

Elders are the heart of our communities. They are knowledge keepers, teachers and leaders whose wellbeing is vital to the strength of future generations. 

Yet many Elders remain among the most vulnerable ageing Australians, facing challenges of isolation, health inequity and limited access to culturally safe care.

Your donation makes a meaningful difference. Every contribution — no matter the size — helps us bridge, provide, enhance and upgrade our services.

Bridge

Bridge service gaps caused by changes to aged care funding.

Provide

Provide social connection programs that reduce isolation and promote emotional and cultural wellbeing.

Enhance

Enhance healthy ageing through community activities and wellness programs designed for First Nations Elders.

Upgrade

Upgrade our residential aged care home — the only facility of its kind in metropolitan Adelaide offering specialist care for First Nations Elders.

Together, we can ensure Elders receive the care, respect and recognition they deserve.
