The Bobby Goldsmith Foundation is Australia’s oldest HIV charitable organisation and the only one of its kind. Founded in 1984, it provides direct financial and practical assistance, financial counselling, housing and employment support to people directly disadvantaged by HIV in New South Wales.
We help with practical, emotional and much needed financial support so those living with HIV can maintain their independence and improve their quality of life. It’s the kind of ongoing, unconditional support that usually only friends or family would provide.
The Bobby Goldsmith Foundation works proactively to establish links with other HIV support organisations, such as ACON (AIDS Council of New South Wales), Positive Life NSW and the National Association of People Living with HIV/AIDS (NAPWA). We also work with government agencies including South Eastern Sydney Illawarra Area Health Service (SESIAHS) and the AIDS Dementia & HIV Psychiatry Service (ADAHPS) team.
