Variety the children's charity in Victoria is dedicated to transforming the lives of children with special needs by providing opportunities to increase their quality of life and fulfil their potential.

It achieves this through the provision of equipment, facilities and life experiences and by operating a straightforward and transparent Grants program which draws on the funds raised through our Events, Road Events, Sponsorships and Donations. Some of the ways Variety has achieved these goals has been through the supply of essential items including Sunshine Coaches, Liberty Wheelchair Swings, wheelchairs, walking frames, Second Skin splints, Braille and Dynavox speech machines, to name but a few.

By providing our Special Needs Children with the means to improve their quality of life, we can then help to provide them with some of life’s experiences.

Wanting to make a difference 

At the heart of our organisation is PASSION – we love what we do. Often the recognition for our work comes from a simple smile.

We want our work, experiences and challenges to be INFECTIOUS.

To attract people and organisations that TRUST us with their time, money and resources.

To talk about and give evidence of industry demonstrating our COMMITMENT to making a real difference to the lives of Special Needs Children.

To show LEADERSHIP – by clearly identifying specific needs in the community and then going about facilitating remedies.

By being POSITIVE that we can deliver real, tangible results to the community on behalf of our supporters.

We welcome your feedback and support. Please join with us and our many programs to give those children a little less fortunate than ourselves, a better life.
