UnitingSA
Together we can

We turn our values into actions

UnitingSA is a not-for-profit organisation all about respect, compassion and justice. With a long and proud history of building stronger communities, our can-do attitude is dedicated to supporting South Australians.

Established in 1919, we now help more than 12,000 people every year.

More than 1,000 employees and volunteers deliver a diverse range of programs across aged care, housing and community services, including:

Every aspect of what we do is unified by determination, a respect for everyone’s unique worth and a passion for empowering people.

Individuals, older people, youth, adults and families, people facing mental health issues, people with disabilities, and those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds are just some of the people we communicate with every day.

Together we seek opportunities to enliven communities, enrich lives and improve wellbeing.

We strive to stand alongside every individual and face the world as one.

At UnitingSA, together we can.

UnitingSA for 100 Years

Nobody can do everything but everyone can do something.

UnitingSA relies on the generosity of donors to help deliver innovative programs and support for people in need across metropolitan and regional South Australia.

“I would still be on the streets if it wasn’t for the support of UnitingSA. It means the world to me to have a house for my whole family and to be able to tuck my children in at night.”
