Inspiring stories of healing and hope made possible by you!

Your support is changing children’s lives.

Children can’t heal on their own. It takes a community of kind people like you to provide the support, love, and care they need – and deserve – to get through the hardest time in their lives.

Your kindness and compassion are vital to help children escaping violence and facing hardship to heal, recover and thrive.

In this edition of Buddy News, you’ll read about the incredible impact that your kindness has had on children like Johnny* who are dealing with the devastating impacts of trauma.

When you read these stories, we hope you feel proud about the invaluable support and care you’re providing for children in crisis.

Because without you, none of this would be possible.

Please make a donation today and we can continue to support more children to heal, recover and thrive.
