Peninsula Community Legal Centre is one of the largest community legal centres in Australia. We work within Melbourne’s South Eastern communities to defend the legal rights of more than 5,000 local people every year.  We work in a number of the most disadvantaged neighbourhoods in the state that experience the highest levels of family violence.

Our advice and assistance helps people save their homes, keep their jobs and protect their families from violence.

Whilst our core funding primarily comes from government the generosity of donors, sponsors, supporters and volunteers help us to continue this essential work.

Help us support those most at risk in our community

• A gift of $120 could ensure a mother escaping a violent partner gets legal assistance to file for an intervention order
• A gift of $800 could provide critical legal advice and representation for an elderly woman being financially manipulated and abused by their carer
• A gift of $50 could help a father driven to suicidal thoughts by spiraling tollway fines make an application for revocation of fines
• A gift of $85 could offer a disadvantaged student an opportunity to engage with youth justice issues through the medium of film making and story telling
