TMK supports KICKSTART FOR KIDS this Christmas.
Posted on December 01, 2022
In the last few years TMK has adopted the approach of donating to a charity in lieu of sending Christmas cards to clients, partners and suppliers. We believe that by supporting a charity we will make a more meaningful difference to those who need assistance.
This year we have chosen KickStart for Kids, a not-for-profit organisation that helps disadvantaged school children achieve positive educational outcomes and increased self-esteem through breakfast, lunch and mentoring programs; as well as our Camp KickStart school holiday care program.
In 2011, KickStart for Kids was founded on the belief that every child, regardless of their social or economic background, should have an equal chance to succeed. We facilitate this belief by running school breakfast and lunch programs, mentoring programs and providing basic clothing and healthcare support in South Australian schools.
If children are attending school hungry or encountering hardship, they can’t fully engage with the curriculum, which means they might not achieve the educational outcomes required to succeed. Research shows that children who grow up experiencing hardship are more likely to remain uneducated and live in hardship as adults.
Donations assist KickStart in providing over 50,000 breakfasts per week and 10,000 lunches to kids across 350 South Australian schools. Donate now- its quick and easy.
