Care Kits supporters are you,
our Community.
Our Partners & Sponsors
Ongoing community support is vital for our volunteers to keep providing Care Kits to the many children who need them.
In just the first 6 months of 2023 we, together with our community, partners and sponsors, supplied more than 2,000 Care Kits to more than 2,000 Qld children in need.
Many thanks go to the amazing, generous and caring people in many organisations and businesses across all sectors of our community who have donated backpacks, end of stock, clothing, toiletries, toys, books, quilts, wraps and accessories, fabric, sewing needs, transport, Donation Points, and Financial Support.
