In Loving Memory
This page is in memory of Roger James Fitzgerald. By honouring their life, we can help create lasting change for communities in need.
Every contribution, big or small, is a tribute that brings hope and opportunity to people facing poverty and injustice.
Your support is more than a donation. It’s a powerful act of solidarity that helps families access clean water, education, healthcare, and the chance to build brighter futures.
Please join us in celebrating Roger's legacy by turning compassion into action by making a donation to Caritas rather than sending flowers.
Thank you
Love Elaine, Mark, Bronwyn, Susana and Paula

The impact of a gift
By choosing to celebrate the life of your loved one through Caritas Australia, you've already made a difference.. Your commitment is helping walk alongside First Nations communities across Australia, supporting community‑led solutions that strengthen culture, connection, and self‑determination. You will also reach communities overseas, helping improve access to food, clean water, and essential resources for families in places like Zimbabwe. Every action you take — from sharing your page to raising each dollar — contributes to meaningful, long‑term change. Because of you, communities are being supported to build resilience and shape their own futures. This is the impact you’re creating.
Lam, Vietnam
Lam, a young man from rural Vietnam with a passion for graphic design, faced limited career prospects due to his disability. With support from the I-SHINE program, he pursued IT training and now runs a successful freelance graphic design business.

Leaia, Samoa
Not having access to a reliable source of clean water was very difficult for Leaia and her family. But with the support of Caritas Australia, a water tank was installed at their home, improving their health and living conditions.

Priscilla, ZImbabwe
Zimbabwe is experiencing an intense drought, exacerbated by climate change. With the support of Caritas Hwange, Priscilla learnt conservation farming skills to grow drought-resistant crops and started poultry farming to support her family during the current food crisis.

Emergency
When disaster strikes, whether through conflict, famine, or natural disaster, vulnerable communities are often left without the essentials for survival. But together, we can respond with compassion and hope. By starting an Emergency Fundraiser, you’ll help provide essentials like food, clean water, shelter and urgent humanitarian aid to families in crisis. Every dollar raised can make the difference between despair and recovery.
