Much of SAIL’s work in Indigenous Australian languages depends on donations. Please consider contributing to our undesignated fund, which we’ll allocate where it’s needed most as we partner with communities on translation, literacy, and outreach. If you’d like to support a specific project, just specify it when you donate. Funds for specific projects can be sent to the organisations listed in the project list above. For any donation to any of the SAIL organizations listed below—just add a comment indicating the project or area you wish to support.
