A BIG THANK YOU! This week we celebrated a momentous occasion and we couldn’t have done it without your support of our Art Unions. On Monday afternoon, the 8 millionth call for help was answered by Kids Helpline – Australia’s only free, 24/7 phone and online counselling service for young people. Since the launch of the service in 1991 a young person has attempted to contact the service every 56 seconds and on average we answer around 800 of those calls and online requests – every single day. 

It’s because of your continued support that someone is there to answer, with three-quarters of the service funded through our Art Union ticket sales.

So as we celebrate this incredible achievement, we want to say thank you – you made it all possible.
