Application for Disaster Assistance Response Team (DART)

This is an application for membership of the Australia/New Zealand Disaster Assistance Response Team. It is not an application for employment or for a regular DART position. It is important to note that the nature, location, and occurrence of disasters cannot be predicted, and therefore deployment opportunities cannot be guaranteed.

Samaritan’s Purse is a non-profit, Christian organisation providing emergency relief and development assistance to suffering people around the world. Samaritan’s Purse is meeting the physical needs of victims of war, famine, natural disaster, poverty, and disease with the aim of demonstrating God’s love and sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ. The aid and assistance are given without regard to the race, creed, gender, religion, or ethnicity of the beneficiaries.

To be a member of our DART, it is important that you share our Christian values and beliefs and agree with the Samaritan’s Purse Statement of Faith and Mission statement.
