Every Child Deserves to Thrive

We know every child’s journey is different. That’s why we offer a range of programs designed to respond to both immediate needs and longer-term goals.

When times are tough, Variety is there to ensure children and their families do not miss out on the support they deserve, filling the gaps when other systems fall short.

From hosting an event to taking on a personal challenge, every dollar you raise helps provide vital equipment, therapy, and opportunities for children.

Donate Your Hair

Make a real difference for kids who have lost their hair. By donating your locks, you’re giving more than hair. You’re giving confidence. Every donation helps transform a child’s day-to-day life and makes them feel like themselves again.

Workplace Giving

Workplace giving allows employees to make small, regular donations directly from their pre-tax pay.

It’s easy, flexible and completely voluntary.
