They need your help
For children who are sick, disadvantaged or who have special needs, life can be tough.
When families are struggling to cope, Variety provides much-needed support for things like specialist equipment, therapy, and medical supplies.
Your business can make a positive, lasting difference to the lives of children in need. In return, your staff will get to see the direct impact they are having on the children and families you support.
How your support helps
All children deserve the same opportunities in life. No matter what hardships they may face. Partnering with Variety demonstrates your orgnanisation’s commitment to corporate social responsibility as you will be helping thousands of children and their families when they need it most.
Mobility
Through your partnership with Variety, you’ll be helping kids gain independence and the freedom to be themselves, regardless of their ability. You’ll be supporting them with things like wheelchairs, walking frames, hoists and vehicle modifications. Even in-home therapy equipment like trampolines and pools.
Communication
Children with special needs can communicate better with additional specialised support.. You’ll be providing life-changing equipment including communications devices like iPads, laptops, Braille notetakers and specialised software.
Medical
Being a charity partner with Variety means you’ll be helping families care for their children with a medical condition in their own home by providing vital medical items and equipment, including feeds, nappies, orthotics, seizure alarms and sensory equipment.
Rare disease
Variety offers specialist help to children affected by a rare disease or condition. When families are finding it difficult to access support for their child’s condition, you’ll be helping provide medical support grants of up to $1000 and ongoing case management services.
Schools and organisations
You can support schools and other organisations with things like Variety Sunshine Coaches, which can be wheelchair modified, for getting kids to school, and modified playgrounds and equipment for children with special needs.
Wigs for kids
For a child or adolescent, losing their hair can have a profound effect on their life and self-esteem. Partnering with Variety means you’ll be helping provide wigs for kids who have lost their hair due to alopecia, cancer or other medical conditions.
Innovation
Some children have such special needs that they require one-of-a-kind pieces of equipment. This can be out of reach for many families who are already struggling to cope financially. You can help ensure no child misses out on bespoke equipment that will change their quality of life significantly.
Scholarships
Partnering with Variety means you’ll be helping children reach their true potential. You’ll be helping provide academic, sports or arts scholarships, encouraging any child, no matter what their ability, to follow their dreams.
Thanks to our amazing supporters
We thank all of the corporate sponsors and partners who support Variety and enable us to assist tens of thousands of children in need throughout South Australia, each year. Without your support many children who need our assistance would remain disadvantaged.
The relationship we enjoy with our partners in the corporate sector is not limited to the dollar as we have built strong and long lasting friendships with each and every one of them.
This is only strengthened by the relationships they develop with other likeminded supporters they meet through being involved with our organisation.
It is often commented that, over time, the feeling becomes much more like a family than a corporate supporter, a valuable attribute that makes involvement with Variety mutually beneficial and it quite simply, hard to replicate.
Where a business derives its income through a local community, there is an inherent responsibility to give back to people rather than just taking. For this reason, the Jarvis Group have been long term supporters of Variety and will continue to do so as part of its philosophy of being a good and active corporate citizen within South Australia.
