    Southern Cross Kids

    Donate   Fundraise

    Southern Cross Kids provides a fun, safe and encouraging environment for children at risk. Through the experience of an annual camp event, young people who have suffered trauma can enjoy friendship and fun in a safe place. 

    Safety and fun can feel like a luxury for many kids; yet it’s a childhood right. This is why so many of them absolutely love camp - and for many of them, it is something they need in a very real way. We are making a remarkable difference in many young lives. 

    Through Kids Camp we hope to:

    1. Give traumatised young people a place where they can relax and make friends.
    2. Enable these children to connect with caring adults in a safe and fun environment.
    3. Partner one mentor with one child to journey the camp program.

    Annual South Sydney Camp

    Southern Cross Kids is a national organisation that works with children in six states across Australia. For more information check out the Southern Cross Kids website.

    Kingsway Community Care partners with Southern Cross Kids to deliver the Southern Sydney Camp. These camps run over 5 days, involve a team of up to 60 trained volunteers who care for 30 children. Our involvement with Southern Sydney Camp was established in 2015 and in that time we’ve cared for and encouraged over 180 young people. 

    The camps are jam-packed with craft, games, cooking, fun and teaching. We desire to provide a week of safe and happy memories.

    You Can Help

    Southern Cross kids club relies on the dedication and commitment of a team of volunteers. If you would like to join our team we'd love to hear from you. Please get in contact with our Team Leader, Avril Mundy.

      Run to Restore 2023

      Over 500 people in the Sutherland Shire and Georges River region experience homelessness every night. This includes young and vulnerable women who are without a safe place to stay. This is simply not okay. Join us on May 28th, 2022 as we run and raise money to enable Jacaranda Cottage to re-open.

    • Supplying life basics

      Often the simplest things make the biggest difference. For many, access to a nutritious meal, basic furniture and household items, and school supplies is a luxury that most take for granted. Kingsway Care is committed to serving the community through offering access to some of life's basic essentials.

      "Platform Nine gave us the care and support we needed in a scary and uncertain time. Mum is back at work now, and I'm still studying for my exams. Life's not perfect, but we're safe and that's all this young girl and her mum could ask for." Your support will help Kingsway Care serve and support more people like Jessica and her mum.
