Support my challenge to care for young Western Australians

Every school day across Western Australia, 250,000 students walk into a school where someone knows their name. In 2025, YouthCARE chaplains and volunteers showed up in 600 school communities and 38 sporting clubs across the state, from the Kimberley to the Great Southern.

They sat with students navigating hard things, served nearly 700,000 meals through Breakfast Club, delivered 30,760 wellbeing sessions, and supported more than 10,000 athletes and their families on the sidelines.

260,000 people. One consistent presence. Ridiculously good care.

Your support helps provide ridiculously good care to young Western Australians.

Help me support YouthCARE today

I will be cooking 20 dinner meals for my wife through the month of May. This is in recognition of the hundreds of YouthCARE chaplains and volunteers who served nearly 700,000 breakfast meals to school children throughout WA last year.
You can choose to sponsor me for every meal I cook or out of compassion you can sponsor my wife who has to eat them!  Whatever you can give will go to a great cause, supporting the work of YouthCARE chaplains across the state. Thank you!
