Your gift can change a life and fuel positive change
With your generosity, we can continue providing essential support to vulnerable families, ensuring a better future for children and young people in Regional Victoria.
Empower change, one donation at a time
Support local programs that provide urgent help and innovative solutions for families in need.
At Cafs, we rely on community support to drive critical programs that aren’t fully funded by government resources. Your donation helps us provide vital services like Thread Together, which receives no government funding, and allows us to pilot innovative new initiatives that sit outside usual funding streams.
Sometimes, your generosity means a family gets the extra help they need during a tough time. Other times, it allows us to respond quickly to urgent needs through special appeals, like our Back-to-School and Winter Programs, which ensure children and young people have the essentials they need to thrive.
Your gift stays in the community, making a real difference where it's needed most.
As an independent, community-run organisation, your contribution stays local, ensuring that every dollar has a direct impact on the lives of vulnerable families in Victoria’s Central Highlands.

At Cafs, we believe every child deserves a safe, nurturing home – somewhere they feel seen, heard and valued. Foster care provides that sanctuary, offering children and young people stability when their own home is no longer safe.
