Make a Donation
With your help, Pink Cross can provide much-needed support for women and men in the sex industry, and fight human trafficking.
Our long-term goal is to secure 300 supporters at $50/month, which would enable funding for all our programs. As a first step, we are looking to sign 20 new supporters this year.
Please consider joining us through either a one-time donation or through a recurring monthly partnership by clicking the link below. Your generosity will help support freedom, hope, and healing throughout Australia.

Giving in your will
After you have provided for your loved ones, please consider leaving a gift in your will to Pink Cross. With little to no impact on your lifestyle today, a gift in your will is one of the most powerful ways you can be sure that Pink Cross continues to transform lives for years to come. Your gift could do many important things, such as:
- Helping us serve over 400 nutritious meals a year to women and children who would otherwise go hungry. We will name our Program after you!
- Help prostitution survivors in Australia obtain stable accommodation, educational qualifications, and mental health recovery support. We can ensure, in all humility, that your giving will positively impact —and grow—, our trauma-informed practices.
- Support women’s therapeutic recovery, and subsidise the treatment for, drug and alcohol misuse.
- Help us reach out to socially isolated individuals and migrants, who are more at risk of trauma, human sexual trafficking, and exploitation, within Australian very liberal legislative context.
- Help us deliver case-management practical support to marginalised women by connecting them with appropriate services and social networks.
If you would like to leave a gift in your will to Pink Cross, or if you have any questions, please contact our friendly Team at info[@]pinkcross.org.au to schedule a conference call with our CEO. Thank you!
Wish List
We are currently calling on our generous community to help us source some vital pieces of technology to enable our organisation to function efficiently.
Currently we are in desperate need of a printer and a mobile phone. We don’t need anything fancy or expensive, we would be grateful to receive a donation of well-functioning second hand equipment.
If you or anyone you know may be able to assist us in sourcing either of these items, please get in contact with us at info[@]pinkcross.org.au.
