Families

For many families, the changes that have accompanied COVID19 require significant adjustments.  Some family members are now working from home, others have lost employment and there are children who are home schooling for the first time. Our Kindness in Families Campaign aims to support families working through some of these challenges. There are eight parts to the Campaign:
  1. New Mums - support for new mums HERE
  2. Kofi Kindness - a Gratitude Journal from a 13 year old (free) HERE
  3. Families that bend - stories and strategies for adapting to change HERE
  4. Kitchen Table - messages about respect for older people in families HERE
  5. Street by Street - understanding support for friends experiencing family violence  (coming soon) 
  6. Kids in Quarantine - support for living with kids in a Quarantine Hotel HERE
  7. Leadership in Lockdown - supporting residents in hard lockdown in Melbourne HERE
  8. The Loomba Family - supporting a grieving refugee family HERE
  9. More Information - support for families/individuals from drummond street services HERE

Volunteer with us - Campaign Champions play a pivotal role in engaging community members in our Campaigns. The Champions use their own networks to spread the word about the Campaign and to gather stories and acts of kindness. As a volunteer you can work as many or as few hours as you like – and volunteer at times that work for you. Please follow the link to our volunteer platform HERE for more information.
