The Difference You'll Make
For children and families who experience violence, abuse and trauma, Berry Street is a trusted organisation that provides programs, services and support to ensure families can stay together safely.
As one of Australia’s largest independent family service organisations, Berry Street offers a wide range of services including foster and kinship care, trauma-informed education, family violence services and support, and programs that help children heal and recover from their deep trauma. Their vision is a future where children are healthy, happy and able to imagine and create better futures for themselves.
By joining the Berry Street Southern Alps adventure, you'll raise vital funds for these services by joining like-minded teammates to take on the epic Southern Alps treks.
Your efforts will help families like Josie’s*, who at just 22 took on the care of her three young siblings, Annie* (7) Lucas* (5) and Rose* (3). Knowing firsthand the trauma they would experience in the family home, Josie stepped up to be their guardian, and with support from Berry Street’s kinship care services, she’s creating a healthier future for her and her young siblings.
Thanks to the ongoing support of Berry Street’s therapy and dedicated staff, 24/7 helpline access, and financial support to purchase household essentials, Josie is keeping her siblings together in a safe, loving home.
