Dear Redlands4Refugees
The Romero Centre would like to thank you for your amazing support. We are so grateful for the generosity that you and the community has shown us in these tough times. The Centre is still facing it’s biggest challenge in meeting the survival needs of people seeking asylum. So that like you, our thoughts, prayers and efforts turn to the most vulnerable members of our communities, our country and the world. More than ever, this is our time to stand together for what we value.
The Romero Centre has always been, and we hope we will continue to be, a place where all people seeking asylum, refugees, our dedicated volunteers and our supporters, feel at home and truly welcomed - no matter who you are or where your journey began.
We have only been able to maintain this safe sanctuary because of our compassionate supporters and generous contributors who have come to our aid when we needed it the most. That has not changed.
The Government has come to the aid of Australians with stimulus packages to make sure the community is looked after during the COVID-19 Crisis.
However these packages do NOT apply to the Romero Centre or many of the people we support, therefore our need is growing day by day and even hour by hour.

We desperately need your help to spread the message of hope and stand beside families seeking asylum and refugees.
Refugees and people seeking asylum are extremely vulnerable members of our community and this has now intensified for many. They often do not have access to government support, shelter or even food.
Many people we see at the Romero Centre do not have a secure roof over their head. For people who are already isolated and without a safe place to call home, the new world of "self-isolation" and "social distancing" is bewildering and a next to impossible task.
