Supporting kids in need.
Variety – the Children’s Charity help kids living with disability and illness or experiencing disadvantage.
Variety provides support through the provision of grants for a range of equipment, such as wheelchairs or all-abilities playgrounds to provide practical help to kids, schools and organisations.
We run programs to educate and empower kids that are falling through the cracks.
We give scholarships to encourage the talents of kids living with disability or experiencing disadvantage.
And last but certainly not least, we hold kids’ events to bring joy, light and laughter to children in need and their families.
Alex is a bright and bubbly four-year-old, who lives with Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy and Epilepsy. In addition to his diagnosis, Alex has challenges with sensory processing and has complex communication needs.
This year, we funded an x;panda chair for Alex, valued at $12,345. The chair provides postural support and sensory input, whilst enabling Alex to remain safely seated at all times.
