How your donation helps
Since we started in 1989, Kids Under Cover has supported more than 2,800 young people at risk of homelessness with a secure home through our Studio Program.
For the young person the Studio provides an opportunity to develop
independent living skills and to stay connected with their family. More
importantly, it prevents young people from becoming homeless.
Our Scholarship Program helps
young people to stay engaged with education. By covering education
expenses, young people are empowered to continue their study or job
training. This can lead to more positive employment opportunities,
ensuring the young person has a productive, functioning place in their
community.
Our Mentoring Program offers
positive role models who connect with young people and offer guidance,
support and encouragement. As confidence, self-esteem and social skills
improve, young people are in a better position to make life-changing
decisions.
With our programs young people are empowered to build a brighter future for themselves.Kids Under Cover changes lives
