Change a life this Christmas!

Twenty years ago, Blake’s young life took a turn for the worse. His home life was already unpredictable with an alcoholic Father, but then, his Dad left and his parents got divorced. There was no joy that Christmas.

Sadly there are many children who struggle like Blake did – if not for the care and dedication of a mentor like John. In Blake’s words, “He changed my life!” Read their full story here.

A donation from you this Christmas will help place mentors, like John, with kids who desperately need them.

Please give now. Change a life this Christmas!

Some kids have it tough

Every child needs to be supported and valued. But sometimes life doesn’t work out that way.

  • Jay-Ellen’s parents lost their jobs during Covid and food was very scarce. She now has ongoing anxiety about food.
  • Sam doesn’t speak to anyone—teachers or other kids, since his Mother died.
  • Abdul has recently moved to Australia. At home, things are tense, and when he’s at school, he feels like he doesn’t fit in.
  • Maria’s mum is often unwell, so she needs to shop, cook and keep things going at home. There’s no time to do her homework or be a kid.
You can be their champion!

Kids Hope changes lives

You can be a child’s champion. Imagine the impact when a child realises they matter to you. Through one-to-one mentoring, kids experience love and belonging and in turn find new confidence. Their learning improves, they develop positive relationships and hope for a better future is ignited.
One Mentor. One child. One hour a week. The impact… immeasurable!
