Frequently Asked Questions
Where does your money come from?
The money and other gifts that Lutheran Drought Aid Queensland distributes is entirely donated by the people of the Lutheran Church of Australia (LCA).
Do I have to be Christian to access help?
No: these donations were given for anyone in need, to be distributed with no strings attached. We do this because we want you to know that God cares about you in your difficulty.
What if I have already received other drought support, such as a government grant?
We assess your application based on your current needs, regardless of what other support you may have received. However, we do want to make sure that you know about the various support options available to you, so you can get as much help as possible.
Will my application be confidential?
Yes, we keep your application confidential. If you wish, we can share your story via this website, to encourage others. But even then, we can conceal your real name.
