Who we are
A valued part of The Smith Family
VIEW Clubs’ long-standing connection with The Smith Family helps it support young Australians experiencing poverty to overcome their circumstances and reach their full potential by providing long-term, wrap-around support for their education.
VIEW provides women with the opportunity to meet regularly with other women from all walks of life, establish lasting friends, attend social activities and events, learn new skills, raise funds and find fulfillment knowing they are contributing to better life outcomes for Australian Children and young people in need.
Members also enjoy monthly meetings, hearing from interesting guest speakers, leadership opportunities, and enjoying the rewarding satisfaction of helping others.
VIEW is a non-religious and non-political organisation.
VIEW women are great connectors. Through their ability to build networks and inspire the wider community, members play a vital role in raising awareness of The Smith Family’s work providing long-term educational support and making a difference to the lives of Australian children and young people experiencing poverty.
