Community

Fusion Australia is a not-for-profit Christian Youth and Community organisation who has a deep and ongoing commitment to developing resilience in individual lives. We also believe that young lives need a strong community around them so we work alongside passionate people and networks from all over Australia on a variety of national and locally focused projects.

Since Fusion first started over 50 years ago, we have worked tirelessly to bring young people and their communities together with hope, determination and permission to make change.

Our Vision

Bringing Young People and their Community Together with Hope.

Our Values

Justice

Recognising the boundaries that are an integral part of all aspects of life.

Mercy

The capacity to see life from the perspective of another.

Compassion

Moving past our own self-absorption to love & care for others & the world around us.

Respect

Recognising that every person has priceless value and all have a gift that we are only able to receive when we see them as separate and unique individuals.

Industry

Recognising that we all have a contribution to make to society and that we will only be fully alive when we are free to exercise our unique gifts productively.

Our Story

Fusion is a Christian youth and community organisation which emerged as a creative response to socially-at-risk young people in Australia in 1960. Today, Fusion has thousands of staff and volunteers in 18 teams and centres around Australia.

Fusion is also involved in 14 other countries including the United Kingdom, Greece, Albania, Canada, the Caribbean, Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa, Indonesia, India and the South Asian region.

In working with the disadvantaged, we have observed growth in resilience among those who find purpose in the context of community. That resilience equips individuals and families to deal with life’s difficulties and produces capacity to care for others.
