Changing the world for a child on Mother’s Day

This year is the 50th anniversary of Time for Kids and to raise funds for the next 50 years the organisation is selling gifts of time in the form of anniversary dolls. By purchasing a doll for just $50 South Australians are helping sponsor a child in need of a local volunteer family. Each sponsorship will help Time for Kids match another South Aussie kid in need with a local family.

Time for Kids Secures Grant from Future2 Foundation

The Future 2 Foundation and local financial planners have thrown their support behind Time For Kids, a not for profit organisation that has been working with disadvantaged families and children in South Australia since 1960. One of three grants of $10,000 each has been awarded to Time for Kids to initiate a financial literacy program for the families of children who need respite care on a regular basis.
