Northcott Fundraising

Thank you!

It’s thanks to you that children and adults with disabilities can achieve their goals and aspirations, living independently and as part of an inclusive society.

This includes people like Casey Howard-Cantina and her children:

Casey Howard-Cantina and her children“Since I began receiving support from Northcott my family’s life has become a little easier and stress free. The staff are always there when I needed someone to talk to or raise concerns with. My kids absolutely love being part of Northcott’s activities – be it at the respite cottage, playground or community events. For me, it’s opened up a new circle of friends and given me the opportunity to have time to myself to recharge my batteries.” Casey is mum to five-year old Harrison and three-year-old Giann. Harrison has a respiratory condition, autism and behavioural problems. Giann was born with a paralysed vocal chord.

How your generous donations helps people with disabilities 

  • Northcott provides over 100 programs and services across NSW and ACT

What will your money buy for Northcott

Every cent does count, so it doesn’t matter if your donation is big or small. For example:
$2 – covers the cost of presentation ribbons for children who participate in Northcott’s unique sports carnivals
$5 – pays for art and craft materials for the children who use Northcott’s Early Childhood Support Service
$10 – purchases early learning and therapy toys for children with autism
$20 – goes towards enabling one child to participate in a sports carnival with other young people with similar abilities
$50 – goes towards increasing Northcott’s loan pool for children’s equipment

You can help more people with disabilities in many ways including making a donation purchasing the May Gibbs merchandise which we sell, becoming a corporate partner, participating in an event or running a community fundraising event yourself.
