22.01.2022 WACD Support Within the WA Community, there are vulnerable children who enter care arrangements with little notice. In 2019, there was over 5000 children in care & this number is expected to rise due to the pressures of COVID-19. Local Charitable group Care Bags lovingly provide a backpack for each child filled with essentials & comfort items at their time of placement. WA Charity Direct has recently supported their efforts with funding to cover 200 of the much needed Wint...er bags. Thankyou WACD Members, the impact of your financial support is real #100percentgiving
