Child SponsorshipDonate now

Thank you from The Smith Family CEO, Doug Taylor

Because of your incredible generosity during our 2025 Winter Appeal, children like Ella* now have the opportunity to make the most of their education.

Your support means that 18,798 young Australians growing up with poverty will now have access to our proven, community-based learning support programs. These programs help students build confidence, strengthen essential skills, and stay engaged with their education—giving them the tools they need to reach their full potential.
At a time when many families are struggling with the rising cost of living, your kindness is more powerful than ever. For families like Ella’s, your donation eases the burden of impossible financial choices and brings hope where it’s needed most. 

Imagine the moment a child finally understands a concept they once found overwhelming, or the pride they feel when they achieve something they never thought possible - your donation has made moments like these a reality for so many young minds. It's not just about education; it's about unlocking potential and paving the way for a future filled with possibilities.

And it's happening because of you. 


Thanks to your support, children will begin receiving help as early as Terms 3 and 4 this year. 

From all of us at The Smith Family, thank you for believing in the potential of every child. Your generosity is opening doors, changing lives, and creating a future filled with possibilities.
