The charity sector in Western Australia is calling for policy changes in the upcoming March state election to help support the state’s youth and the health of babies and women.
WA’s children’s charity Variety WA is calling on the state and federal governments to consider targeted funding for at-risk children to access and stay in school to help break the poverty cycle.
Last year, Variety WA’s internationally recognised EduKids Grants program granted $300,000 to support 100 primary schools and 58 high schools representing a fifth of all public schools in the state, assisting 6,225 vulnerable children in the state.
