Double the Joy with Koala Kids

Marshall White is proud to continue its longstanding support for the Koala Kids Foundation, a dedicated charity that provides small, meaningful moments of joy to children and young people undergoing cancer treatment, as well as to the families standing beside them.

As the end of the financial year approaches, a tax-deductible donation before June 30 is an opportunity to make a real and lasting difference. With the support of the Gandel Foundation, all donations made this EOFY will be matched, helping Koala Kids double their impact across Victoria and Tasmania.

Over the past year, Koala Kids has brought moments of happiness to more than 600 families, both in hospital and at home. From monthly themed activity kits to therapeutic comfort items, birthday smash cakes and festive holiday gifts, every gesture is thoughtfully designed to spark joy, distract from discomfort, and remind children and their families that they are not alone.

Kat Morris, whose daughter Novalie has been receiving treatment for over four years, says Koala Kids has been a constant source of comfort throughout their journey. “There are toys, crafts, toiletries, a lucky dip prize for enduring a difficult procedure, smash cakes for celebrations… even Christmas gifts and a meal when we had nothing else organised,” she shares. “Some people don’t know that parents are with their child 24/7 in hospital and they aren’t provided meals. Having Koala Kids in the Children’s Cancer Centre meant there was always something there if we hadn’t had time to prepare.”

Your EOFY donation can be directed toward specific areas of support, from art supplies and birthday treats to food hampers and parent care packages. However you choose to help, your generosity will go twice as far thanks to the Gandel Foundation’s matching initiative.

At Marshall White, we are honoured to champion Koala Kids and the powerful work they do in easing the everyday burden for families facing unimaginable challenges. Their mission is simple but profound: to bring happy moments to children with cancer. Make a tax-deductible donation today and help double the joy.
