16.01.2022 In what’s been a tough year for everyone, it’s been extremely tough for the Kickstart kids. We had to cancel our Camp Kickstart program all year due to COVID. We have never seen so many dirty, hungry, listless kids in all the time we have been doing this. We still got to see some of our kids who do it really tough over the last week and give them some Chrissy happiness #loveourvolunteers

13.01.2022 As a result of Covid-19 we’re seeing more kids go hungry, and therefore a dramatic increase in need for our school breakfast and lunch programs. Our Founder Ian Steel discussed this increase in demand with 7NEWS Adelaide last night.

07.01.2022 Merry Christmas ThankYOU Ryan Wheeler and Christina Clark for ALWAYS going above and beyond for that 1 child that needs us. ThankYOU to our amazing Board members. ThankYOU to our sponsors and partners who passionately support everything that we do. Our biggest ThankYOU to our amazing volunteers who work in our programs, often for little thanks in order to bring a smile to a child who is doing it tough. Amazingly the longer we help the kids we do the more passionate we get, we... will continue to tell their stories so they can live a better life. We get so many offers to help, the simplest way to help is to share our posts, the more people who are aware of how tough these kids do it, the more we can try and change it Lastly the real heroes out there are the beautiful grandmas and aunties who are the primary carers of in some cases 4 of their Grandchildren, nephews and nieces Merry Christmas from all of us at Kickstart for kids See more

04.01.2022 . Just received this beautiful message from a beautiful girl who is part of our community I just wanted to say thank you for everything you do for me and everyone that you have helped and created a safe environment for. All the kids that I have met through kickstart always tell me they want to come back because they love it so much. You have created this wonderful place where kids can stop worry and actually get to have fun, make new friends and learn different types of social skills. I think that’s just so amazing and I’m so happy and grateful to be apart of it. Love you and thanks-
