On Sunday, 15 October 2017 a group of Human Appeal Australia team left Sydney to Canberra the Capital city of Australia for a noble goal to continue our mission in standing with Rohingya refugees
An open fundraising day has been organised by the local Muslim community in Canberra. It was a day of hope for Rohingya that involved great speakers and different activities for families including BBQ, fundraising auctions, food stalls and kids activities.
Around 250 people attended this family fundraising open day including prominent people in the community.
