Donate to Windermere

The need is far from over. We still need your support to protect vulnerable children and families in south east Melbourne and Victoria.

Even though restrictions are easing and most of us are getting some normality back in our lives, for many the aftermath COVID-19 is only just beginning.

The many months of social isolation and the extreme emotional and financial stress poses a real and significant threat to vulnerable families throughout our community - especially those impacted by family violence.

We help more than 20,000 lives every year.

Every single day, we aim to get in early and make a difference in the lives of individuals, families and communities.

We find solutions for very complex situations and support the most vulnerable in our community to reach their full potential.

Last year alone we supported over 1,800 women and children experiencing family violence or related trauma.

Your tax-time donation will help us to continue to deliver vital services to keep vulnerable children and families safe.
