Community Partners:
With one critical objective, NSW Kids In Need aim to support more kids in need, more often and in more ways, by providing a single, united platform which supports not one, but six charities. Alone they raise only small amounts, but together, as one, can potentially raise hundreds of thousands of dollars required to provide critical services to an increased number of kids in need.
