Ardoch Youth Foundation is a children's charity providing education support for children and young people experiencing disadvantage.

We deliver tailored education and wellbeing programs that address barriers to education, develop skills and broaden horizons. We mobilise volunteers to support schools and early childhood centres and advocate for change.

“Imagine you cannot afford to put a nutritional breakfast and packed lunch in front of your child  before they head off to school.

Imagine that you struggle to make sure they have enough warm clothes when the weather starts to change.  Let alone money for text books, football boots, swimming lessons.....

Imagine the dread you feel when a school note comes home about an exciting school excursion for your child but it costs money you don't have.

Imagine facing the fear of homelessness or the disruption of temporary housing.

And imagine you are that child.

Imagine your disappointment and your loneliness.

Then.....imagine the difference you can make by helping Ardoch help children, young people and families.”
