Support Our Community
For more than 40 years, Wollongong West Street Centre has provided free specialist counselling, support, community programs, and advocacy for children, young people, women, and non-offending family members impacted by childhood sexual abuse.
Every day, people come to our service seeking support, connection, understanding, and opportunities to rebuild their lives after experiences of violence and trauma.
Your donation helps us continue this work.

Create safe and welcoming spaces for children, young people, and women.

Develop resources that support recovery, connection, and wellbeing.
-

-
Improve accessibility and inclusivity within our community spaces.
-
Enhance programs that reduce isolation and strengthen social connection.

Respond to emerging community needs that may not be covered by funding.
Every donation, regardless of size, contributes to creating a community where people feel seen, supported, and valued.
