Empower kids in care to reach their dreams
Children in care fall into the lowest educational pool in Australia due to the trauma and instability they experience in their young lives.
Without support, poor educational outcomes can lead to disengagement in school, mental health issues, unemployment in the future and poor life choices.
You can make a difference to the life of a child in care by dedicating an hour a week to help them with their learning, building life skills, confidence and self-esteem.
Together, as a community, we can help to break the cycle of disadvantage experienced by kids in care through continuous stable support and nurturing relationships.
