Telethon in schools
New Telethon classroom resources are helping WA students explore kindness, leadership and community action through curriculum-aligned learning experiences.
From record giving to lasting impact
In 2026, 147 children’s charities and organisations will receive vital funding to help change young lives across Western Australia.
This impact is made possible by a community that came together to raise a record-breaking $90.1 million last year.
These funds go far beyond numbers, supporting brighter futures through critical care, essential services, life-changing equipment and groundbreaking research for children and families who need it most.
Behind every outcome is a child, a family and a story filled with hope. Together, we’re helping every child feel supported, valued and full of possibility.
