our Vision of all
children having a
good childhood.
Become a regular giver
Making a commitment to bring about change for
vulnerable children is easy. Simply nominate an
amount that you feel comfortable to be deducted from
your account or credit card. We will stay in contact to
let you know how your donation is making a difference.
Leave a gift in your Will
Increasingly, people are including a gift in their Will.
There are several ways you can do this:
JJ Gift the residue of your Estate, once you have
provided for your family
JJ Gift a percentage of your assets
JJ Gift a lump sum
Your investment in the future generations of children
and young people will restore hope for Victoria’s most
vulnerable children.
Become a Foster Parent
When children can’t live safely at home or with
relatives, foster care is usually the preferred option.
our major sponsors:
There is a nationwide shortage of foster parents. Foster
parents can be single, married and any age. We would
welcome your enquiry on 1800 U FOSTER (1800 836

rewarding and worthwhile role. Each child who enters
foster care is different and unique. For this reason, we
are constantly seeking foster parents who come from
diverse backgrounds, cultures and a range of different
experiences.
