We are committed to connecting country kids to the care they need
COVID-19 may have significantly changed the world we live in, but it hasn’t reduced the demand for our specialist services
While face-to-face programs at the Centre for Country Kids in Manly and in community are temporarily suspended, Royal Far West has transitioned our services to Telecare (virtually via technology) where possible, to ensure no country child is left behind.

Three ways you can help
Donate
Every dollar goes to to support country children. We’re funded by a combination of your donations, investments, government grants and corporate partnerships. Anything you give is enormously appreciated. Donations over $2 are tax deductible.
Fundraise
Sausage sizzles, fun runs, marathon bike rides – anyone can help out with a little imagination and inspiration. Find out how you can get involved.
Volunteer
Without volunteers, we couldn’t function. Many volunteers are long-term regulars, others offer their skills for a specific event. Even if you only have a few hours to spare, we’d love to have you!
