Every 90 seconds, a young person reaches out to Kids Helpline. Yet right now, only three out of every five calls can be answered because there isn’t enough funding to put more counsellors on the line.
With your support, we can be there for even more.
Content warning: suicide.
Every call matters. Every gift matters.
Charlotte’s story is a powerful reminder of why your support is so important. At just 12 years old, after enduring relentless bullying, Charlotte tragically ended her life. Her final wish was simple: Share my story. Raise awareness about bullying. Everyone matters, every day.
With your support, we can honour that belief and ensure every young person has access to help whenever they need it.
Your tax-deductible donation before June 30 can make sure every call for help is answered. You can be the reason the next call for help gets answered.
All donations over $2 are tax deductible.

"When that last school bell rings at the end of term, there will be children and young people cut off from their main supports. Not only have they lost school as their safe place, but local services will also shut down."
