Allied Health Services

Global Humanitarian Aid Foundation (GHAF) helps provide a wide range of allied health services for children, adults, and individuals with disabilities and disorders who do not have the finances or opportunities to get the therapeutic care and support they need. We also help provide these allied healthcare services to those experiencing disadvantage, poverty, distress, abuse, or discrimination as well as victims of natural disasters. Through GHAF, these disadvantaged individuals can gain complete access to the best allied healthcare services that they would otherwise be unable to get on their own because of their unique circumstances.

Our Proven Approach

Using an enablement approach, our goal is to help improve the physical, mental, emotional, and psychological health and well-being of people with a disability and disadvantaged individuals. At the same time, we also want to help enhance their ability to engage in life activities at home, school, in the workplace, and/or community. With us here at GHAF, everyone can utilise the allied health services we provide to not just become healthier in body, mind, and spirit but also live a fuller, happier, and more meaningful life. Our team is genuinely passionate about helping people and have dedicated their lives to delivering the best care and support for people of all ages from all walks of life.

Working With The Best

GHAF works with the best certified allied healthcare professionals in Australia so we can help disadvantaged individuals and people with a disability get the therapeutic care and support they need. From optometrists and audiologists to occupational therapists and podiatrists, speech pathologists and art therapists, our foundation can help connect people with the best allied healthcare providers. With the vast array of quality allied health services that we provide, our passion and dedication for helping people live more meaningful lives, GHAF has become one of Australiaโ€™s most trusted and admired charitable organisations.

With us being a registered NDIS provider, children, adolescents, and adults with disabilities and complex care needs can get the funding they need from the Australian Government to utilise the allied health services that we can help provide. For individuals who are not funded by the NDIS, our foundation will shoulder the expenses through donations and contributions from our generous donors.
