About Us

We are a children’s charity that helps more than 900 families across Victoria who have a child with a life-threatening condition. Sadly, many of the children we care for will not reach adulthood. Free-of-charge family support services include counselling, advocacy, sibling support, bereavement support, and linking families with trained family volunteers. Each family is supported in unique and varying ways according to their personal needs. 

Every family service volunteer completes a 27-hour training program to equip them with the skills and knowledge needed to support families. Volunteers receive ongoing support and supervision.
