Koala Kids mission is that it’s volunteers provide small things that make a difference to children and young people during cancer treatment, their families and healthcare team. Small things such as LEGO and DUPLO, Koala Kids colour-in items like theatre gowns and backpacks plus puzzles, books and craft kits. Therapeutic resources include novelty pill swallowing kits, novelty Band-aids and nasogastric tube tapes, family support like meal boxes and basic groceries and engaging activities like pizza and pancake making days and live science, martial arts and cooking sessions.
We impact paediatric wards across Melbourne and country Victoria and Tasmania and work with the Victorian Paediatric Integrated Cancer Service, a partnership between The Royal Children’s Hospital, Monash Children’s Hospital and the Peter McCallum Cancer Centre and nine major regional hospitals.
Inside the hospitals children, parents, siblings and healthcare workers look forward to seeing Koala Kids volunteers in their distinctive Koala Kids t-shirts visiting the wards with huge smiles on their faces and a trolley full of activities.
