Our centres
Philanthropic giving
Together we can have a profound impact on Australian children's lives.
Your gift can transform the lives of vulnerable children
In 2020, Barnardos improved the lives of 13,654 of Australia’s most vulnerable children and young people. Sadly, there are still so many who need our help. By supporting Barnardos you can enable us to intervene early, to strengthen families and protect Australia’s most vulnerable children.
Philanthropic gifts allow us to be innovative, to plan for the long term and to respond quickly to the urgent needs of families and children who have no one else to turn to.
The difference you can make
Philanthropic gifts allow us to reach more children, young people and families, like Sanita, through our life-changing programs.
Sanita's story of survival
Evidence based, high impact programs
We will use your funds wisely and direct your gift to areas of our work that matter to you.
We build lasting philanthropic relationships and work hand-in-hand with you on high-impact projects that create sustainable change.
Barnardos’ Learning Centres and Homework Clubs provide before and after school programs for children aged 5-12, many of whom are First Nations Australians, who have been exposed to violence or family breakdown. This targeted approach allows us to work with children to break the cycle of disadvantage and help them engage with their education.
Barnardos Learning Centres
A donation to Barnardos enables our dedicated case-workers to be out on the streets at 2am in the most disadvantaged areas, where many welfare services have not been able to meet the needs of young people.
Youth at risk
Your donation will give families and their children a second chance in life. People like Tegan who narrowly escaped death at the hands of her partner. We believe that everybody deserves that second chance of a better, happier, safer life.
Family support for Teagan
