When Tassie kids who are sick, experiencing disadvantage or living with a disability are left with nowhere to turn, we provide the critical help and hope they thought was out of reach.
We help children across Tasmania gain equity, independence, inclusion and self-esteem through life-changing equipment, financial assistance by funding and delivering equipment and services under three core programs.

Variety helps children access medical care and support during challenging times. We also collaborate with likeminded medical institutions and health organisations on initiaitives that enhance and promote the physical, mental and emotional wellbeing of children.
Freedom Program
Variety grant adaptive mobility devices and experiences and deliver programs that help kids gain independence, play freely and experience the joys of childhood.
Future Program
Variety enriches children’s lives through scholarships, grants and by delivering programs that promote learning and remove barriers to education.
