21 years helping Aussie farmers
As Aussie Helpers turns 21, we’ve got much to reflect on, many to give thanks to and big things to look forward to in the future. It’s thanks to the generosity of our supporters and volunteers that we’ve been able to support farmers and farming communities.

While the numbers are substantial, what’s more meaningful is the relief and appreciation we see in the eyes of many farmers and their families. Thanks to Aussie Helpers, farmers know they’re not alone. Our small but mighty team provides outstanding support to farmers and rural communities every day.
Without our supporters and volunteers, we wouldn’t be able to achieve our mission—every day—for the last 21 years. Thank you.
Our Services
As one of Australia’s largest farming charities, we’ve provided support directly to farmers for 21 years and created lasting connections with rural communities across Australia.
Aussie Helpers helps 1,000s of farmers every year… whether it be providing animal feed, financial assistance, food hampers, fuel cards, laptops, school fee support, student tutoring, access to mental health services, and little luxuries like Christmas hampers and gifts for kids.
Our regular farm visits are a vital lifeline to many farmers and their families. Our team—all Mental Health First Aid certified—provide open ears, minds and arms for farmers who simply need to know they are not alone.
We know there is so much more to be done—and that we can do—to support farmers and communities. We know that many farmers continue to struggle alone. And for us, that’s not ok. We also know the next major natural disaster, that will devastate farms and rural communities, is just around the corner. We’re focused on strengthening our services and supporting more Aussie farmers and farming communities in need than ever before.
We want every farmer and rural community to know that we are here for them—and we want to be able to front up and support in any way they need. Aussie Helpers is open and flexible to responding to the unique needs that individual farmers, their families and rural communities face. We provide immediate help—wherever, whenever and however—farmers and farming communities need it, which makes us different to many other charities.
How we help
Where you’ll find us
Our offices and depots are rural community hubs where farmers drop in for a chat, we coordinate deliveries of donated supplies and where we host community events.
You’ll always find a cup of tea and a listening ear at an Aussie Helpers’ site. But it’s best to call ahead if you’re dropping in just in case we’re on the road visiting farmers and farming communities in need.
