One Day, Double the Impact: Australian Red Cross Giving Day Explained

We speak with a representative from Australian Red Cross about their first-ever Giving Day on 19 March 2026 — a 12-hour event where donations made between 8am and 8pm AEDT will be matched and doubled (up to available funds). We discuss how the initiative works, where the money goes, and how community generosity will support emergency response, recovery, support for people seeking safety, local resilience programs, and international humanitarian work. With partners helping to maximise impact, this is a unique opportunity to make twice the difference in one day.
