Actor, comedian and campaigner Magda Szubanski has brought together an interfaith group of friends to launch a Go Fund Me campaign that ‘speaks to the love and acceptance of Australian people – not to division and mistrust.’

Launched last week in direct response to the Australian Christian Lobby’s fundraising for the legal trial for former Rugby Australia player Israel Folau, the #ForLove campaign aims to raise a total of $500,000.
