22.01.2022 Meet Thomas, one of our amazing 2019 Variety Heart Scholarship recipients Thomas lives with physical disability but does let the challenges he faces get in t...he way of chasing his dreams. Thomas is a keen saxophone player, often giving lessons to other children living with disabilities in the hope to inspire them to pursue music. His scholarship has given him more than a new saxophone, but also the confidence to continue exploring his passion for music #throwbackthursday #40thanniversary Applications for the current round of Variety Heart Scholarships closes on November 23rd!

21.01.2022 Nine year old Savanah finds joy in everything she does from netball and karate to fishing, photography and science experiments! Despite her appetite for learn...ing new things, Savanah has to work extra hard on her reading and writing because of her learning disability, which can make her shy and anxious at times. Thanks to the generous ongoing support from people like you, Savanah received a Variety grant for a new laptop and specialist software to help build her literacy skills. I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the laptop you kindly supplied Savanah with, said Savanah’s mum, who was optimistic about the improvements that would come from the new learning platform. If you know someone like Savanah who needs a helping hand to reach their potential, share this post or visit our website to find out how you can receive assistance: http://bit.ly/20grants See more

11.01.2022 Little Finn lives with Tuberous Sclerosis, Epilepsy and Global Development Delay, which impacts most day to day activities for Finn and his family. Finn doesn’t... understand the concept of dangers and has differing needs from other kids his age, but he doesn’t let it get in the way of having a good time! In 2016 Variety WA provided Finn with a brand new portable safety sleeper bed and like his bed at home, has high sides to prevent him falling out and injuring himself. This assists Finn in getting to and from all of his appointments and ensures he’s safe when visiting family and friends. #throwbackthursday #40thAnniversary The current round of Variety Grants closes on 11 Jan 2021.
