Friends of Samaritans

We need a diverse group of people who care about the work we do in reducing the suicide rate in WA and providing emotional support for people who are despairing and suicidal.

Some of the ways that you can be a Friend of Samaritans:

• Support through payment of a tax deductible donation in return for information on our progress through the newsletter “Keeping in Touch”. We suggest a donation of around $25 (or $15 concession holders) annually.
• Organise one/more events a year to promote our service, attract financial support, help in kind or attract more volunteers
• Small scale fund raising activities (cake stall/jumble sale type activities, movie nights)
• Large scale fundraising (entrepreneurial and marketing activities)

Ways in which The Samaritans could benefit our Friends:

• Through training in effective listening and suicide awareness
• Joining the social environment within our organisation
• Providing emotional support to yourself and your family if needed

Please call our administrator on 9381 5725 to discuss ways in which we can work together as Friends, to prevent suicide.
