You can have a powerful impact on the lives of communities facing poverty by partnering with Tearfund Australia.

Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
– Matthew 6:9-10

Tearfund Australia is more than just a typical charity. It is a community of Jesus’ followers who believe that we can plant seeds of God’s coming Kingdom through our actions each and every day.

If you share this vision for God’s Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven, we encourage you to partner with us to put your faith in action through the work of Tearfund Australia and our partners. We partner with individuals, family trusts, foundations and private ancillary funds to make a lasting impact in communities experiencing poverty and marginalisation.

The values we share with our giving partners.

• We follow the call of Christ to love our neighbour.
  Our work is an expression of God’s love for all people, enabling them to experience of fullness of life that Jesus promises.
• We believe that change happens locally.
  The best people to overcome the injustices that cause poverty are the Christians who live in the local context. Our projects are designed and managed by people motivated by their faith to enable their community to overcome poverty.
• We invest where the need is greatest.
  Our projects are prioritised to work in areas most affected by poverty, including those facing conflict, with a long-term view towards sustainable change.
• We believe communities are the most powerful agents of change.
  We see community-led development as being the most effective way to overcome the root causes of poverty and create long-lasting change that helps lift people out of poverty.
• We believe Australians have a role to play.
  TEAR works with Christians in Australia as they take make creative and courageous actions to plant seeds of God’s Kingdom here on earth.
