Their healing starts with you

The difference you make
You support children in crisis
When children leave a violent home, they often leave with nothing. Your support helps give these children a Buddy Bag. They’re backpacks full of essentials like toiletries and clean clothing, and a cuddly toy to bring comfort.
120,000 Buddy Bags delivered
You keep children safe online, and beyond
Your support helps fund the world-leading eSmart program. It delivers a range of workshops, resources and support to teach children about internet safety, bullying and wellbeing. Which helps children stay safe online, and in life.
81,600+ children reached through wellbeing workshops
You help children heal
Without expert support, trauma can impact every part of a child’s life. You help fund Children Ahead – an intensive, one-on-one therapy program. It helps children process their trauma. And learn the skills they need to recover and thrive.
350+ children received one-on-one therapy
You’re transforming schools and kinders
If trauma goes undetected, it can limit a child’s learning – and their life’s potential. Your support helps our Trauma Consultancy Service teach educators how to spot the signs of trauma, and give children extra support.
5,800+ children supported at school
