Baptist World Aid Australia is a Christian aid and development organisation who partner with churches and communities in 18 countries to help vulnerable communities emerge from poverty. With the humanitarian crisis of the Syrian war, Baptist World Aid Australia is partnering with an ongoing project in Lebanon, supporting thousands of refugee’s through the local churches and partner organisations. They collaboratively provide physical, medical, social, educational and vocational support which empowers communities and displaced people to find a pathway through crisis and lift out of poverty, challenge and injustice.
Mother's Heart provides a unique wrap-around service to disadvantaged girls and women throughout pregnancy, birth and postnatal care, providing support with immunisations, baby baskets, safe community-based housing, contraception, breastfeeding, parent and child development education. Support also includes mediation and advocacy so that the women/girls are reunited with their families and are safe and protected in their communities. Those who are ready to work are provided with vocational training and job placement opportunities and are supported until they can sustainably support themselves and their family.
Mothers Heart provides a village of medical care, trauma-informed counselling, economic empowerment, and other support services addressing a mother’s unique needs. At its core, Mothers Heart believes in empowerment through choices, educating and equipping mothers with resources and informed choice counselling they need to move from her crisis to independence. Because these women feel supported, 100% of our new intakes in 2025 chose to parent their babies. Mothers Heart are committed to preventing the separation of families. By partnering with local authorities, Christian and non-Christian NGOs, we ensure children are nurtured within their own homes, celebrating a 98% family reconciliation rate in 2025.
Since 1974 Nungalinya College has been equipping men and women for leadership roles in churches and communities. Tearfund partners with Nungalinya College as they deliver the Faith and Family course for First Nations Christian leaders from remote communities in the Northern Territory.
Designed in consultation with community leaders, the Faith and Family Wellbeing course equips participants to respond to issues of domestic and family violence and trauma through a lens of wellbeing. Course participants learn to integrate traditional and cultural patterns as well as Scriptural paths to healing along with developing tools to help their communities engage in violence prevention, improve communication, and to support each other through trauma, grief and loss.
