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.

Pulling Together for WA Families

Every year, YouthCare chaplains engage in over 100,000 conversations that change lives. My wife and I see the impact firsthand while working for this great organisation now our family is putting our muscles where our hearts are.


We are pulling an 2000kg SUV for 1,000 metres to represent the 1,000s of students who rely on our support every week. It’s a big challenge for a big cause.


Support our 'Big Pull' and help us ensure that no young person in Western Australia has to carry their load alone.
