AUSTRALIA- Pell proves Vatican incapable of putting kids first
For immediate release Thursday August 21, 2014
Statement by Nicky Davis, Australian SNAP Leader, +011 61 422 538 440, [email protected]
Cardinal Pell is hiding details of crimes committed on Australia soil against Australian children behind specious claims to be a sovereign state. But if that is the case, why is the Australian government funding this foreign power?
Australian survivors and the Royal Commission have been slapped in the face by church officials' arrogance and belief they are above the law.
But there is one way to ensure compliance with the Royal Commission's reasonable and legal request for information.
The Australian government must move to immediately withhold all tax breaks and other forms of taxpayer funding until the Catholic Church cooperates with all Royal Commission requests, and no longer covers up and enables the widespread and systemic rape of Australia's children.

Winter Appeal 2023
To our friends,
2023 has been a long year with many ups and downs for us all. As we close out the year, we at SNAP hope that you are feeling like you are on your way to being healthy, fulfilled, and happy. This past year has brought both successes and challenges. Thanks to the support you have shown in the past, we’ve been able to celebrate the good days and weather the stormy ones. Now, we are once again asking for your support as we work to support survivors new and old as we ‘Move SNAP Forward.’
At SNAP we are proud to have hosted a very well-attended conference in August 2023. This event allowed us to gather friends, survivors, advocates, and allies for a weekend of camaraderie and connection. We were so happy to be able to welcome many first-time attendees to gather in person and are already looking forward to the next conference.
To strengthen our movement for justice, healing, and prevention, SNAP will be expanding our peer support and providing more volunteer opportunities in the coming year. Through this great work, we are ensuring survivor voices are represented as we work for significant change that will benefit children and survivors.
Right now, survivors worldwide are getting the help they need from SNAP, and more and more reach out to us daily, but we need your help to keep those programs going and get our volunteers the training they need to thrive.
Your tax-deductible gift to SNAP can help offset the cost of our important mission. If you are not in a position to contribute, you can still support us by sharing this letter with those who can. As we continue to fight for survivors across the globe, your donation or sharing the great work SNAP does will help us continue our work to protect the vulnerable, heal the wounded, and prevent abuse.
Your donation ensures SNAP will be there for those who need us more than ever!
Warmly,
Michael W. McDonnell, C.P.S.
Interim Executive Director
