Jono cared deeply about helping others and devoted much of his time to assisting those in need.
Amongst many other things, Jono was a long time volunteer at the South Eastern Centre Against Sexual Assault (SECASA) where he provided legal assistance to victims of sexual and family violence. He was a tutor to newly arrived migrant and refugee children through the Wednesday Night Tutoring Program. Jono was also a volunteer at the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre (ASRC) and an organiser of the Maurice Blackburn and ASRC clinic where he assisted people seeking asylum making applications for protection visas.
In memory of the incredible work that Jono did with ASRC, we have created a page so you can share the support and donate if you wish.
