To safeguard the health of the children we support volunteers are not able to visit or work directly with the children. You can help us to support our special children by volunteering at our events, fundraising, or making a donation.

Public donations are directed to:

  • Rural and Regional Australian families with kids who are ill, injured, disadvantaged or have special needs.
  • Rural and Regional Australian Hospitals for things such as upgrading facilities in children’s wards or the hiring and training of staff.
  • A small portion of funds will be directed to our operational expenses, such as annual insurances and auditing.
