Our Impact

“Variety has enabled our daughter to do things that any other five year old wants to do, despite being trapped in a body that fails her. That is the greatest gift of all”

Together, we can impact young lives in ways you may never have imagined

Variety is one of the most trusted and reliable charities, having given close to $2 billion in grants globally to help children who are living with illness, disability, or experiencing disadvantage.

Giving the gift of a brighter future to thousands of Australian children

The enormous generosity of the Variety community has changed the lives of thousands of children in need for over 40 years in Australia and over 90 years across the world.

Together we’ve created a place where children and their families can turn to for help when times are tough and when there is nowhere else to turn.

Thanks to the support and generosity of our incredible community, Variety – the Children’s Charity has helped give children the opportunity to live life more fully, regardless of ability or background.

The work we do gives children the opportunity to improve mobility, gain freedom and get involved in their community, where they can better communicate, achieve independence, and increase their self-esteem.


In 2022 we directly impacted the lives of 10,954 children in Victoria through the delivery of…

Equipment that helps children with their mobility, like wheelchairs, and walking aids

Rare and expensive medical equipment and services including insulin pumps, wigs, feeds, oxygen pumps and more

Technology, programs and scholarships that help children unlock all the joys of education and communication

Globally, the Variety community supported 445,403 children and 123,301 organisations!
