Story
Hi there!
I am running 1,000km in 10 months to raise funds for RACS!
RACS (Refugee Advice and Casework Service Australia).
RACS is a strong, independent public voice for the rights of refugees and people seeking asylum. RACS helps provide people with free legal advice, representation and advocacy for those seeking asylum.
As an asylum seeker and a Hazara who was forced to flee Afghanistan in 2000, this hits different. I do not know where my family and I would be today without legal support. It brings me hope knowing that there is a charitable body such as RACS who are helping to make a difference in the lives of those seeking asylum, and by supporting families' rights to remain together and find safety and stability in Australia.
This is a cause I am passionate about. For this reason, I am taking on the challenge of running 1,000km by November 30, 2021, to raise funds for RACS.
I need your help to get there. Please help me reach my target of $1,000 by making a tax deductible donation to my fundraising page.
Any contribution, big or small, is appreciated.

RACS (Refugee Advice and Casework Service Australia)
The Refugee Advice & Casework Service is a strong, independent public voice for the rights of refugees and people seeking asylum.
We achieve justice and dignity for refugees through the provision of effective legal services and advocacy.
People who come to Australia seeking asylum are amongst the most vulnerable who come into contact with Australia’s legal and migration system.
For them, a negative decision on their refugee status could mean they are sent back to danger.
At RACS, we:
- provide critical free legal advice, case management and representation for financially disadvantaged and vulnerable people seeking asylum or family reunion
- represent children without their parents, who are seeking protection in Australia
- make complaints for people about serious violations of their human rights to the Australian and United Nations complaints bodies; and
- advocate for systemic law reform and fight for policy that treats refugees with justice, dignity and respect.
With no federal government funding, we rely on donations, grants and pro bono support to continue our vital work.
