Accepts donations? Why support us?
The ABC is under very serious threat – from politicians, commercial media organisations and certain lobby groups.
The ABC is the most trusted, admired and valued national institution.
Large scale sackings have already occurred due to Government cuts to the ABC budget and more are planned.
ABC Friends are working hard with parliamentarians to build political support.
The campaign is more important than ever – please help. The louder our voice, the greater our influence. Let your friends, family and colleagues know about the campaign by sharing this information.
