ASKED QUESTIONS
Why
appeal for Donors?
Some of the
world's poorest people live
in the Asia Pacific Region. This region is one of expansion for
Australian Marists. However, new project funding requests continue to
draw on funds, so we continue to appeal to you, our friends and
benefactors to remember us in your generosity towards charities and
development aid.
There is a
choice of possibilities for assisting the children, women, the
disadvantaged and people with disabilities of the Asia Pacific region.
Currently MMC is involved in many projects in 16 countries in the
region.
What
are we appealing for?
We are
appealing to your generosity of spirit, to give what you can spare to
those in dire need.
We would also be grateful if you could remember us in your will. All
bequest monies go into the MFIM (Marist Fathers International Mission)
account.
Where
does your money go?
Donors are
assured that ALL of your
donation goes towards
the projects of AMCOA (Australian Marist Centre for Overseas Aid),
which
also generates a tax-deductable reciept. No administrative costs are
incurred with AMCOA donations. Your gift reaches
those who need it directly and enhances their lives in various ways,
especially in health and education.
HOW
TO
DONATE
Choose AMCOA or MFIM:
When you donate to
AMCOA, you can give a designated donation to a project of your
choice, or a donation that the MMC Director and his team will
designate to a project. Remember these are tax deductable donations.
When
you donate to MFIM, (no tax deductable receipt) your money helps with
operating costs of the Mission Centre and it also goes towards the
formation of Marist priests and seminaries in the Asia Pacific region,
as well as in some poorer Marist parishes in other parts of the world.
We also support many education, health and skills training development
projects with MFIM donations

projects page and to find out
more about
MFIM and AMCOA.
