Thanks to you, Kids Helpline thrives as Australia's only free, professional, confidential, 24/7 service that protects, and safeguards the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people.
For over 33 years, yourtown has provided vital support to children and young adults aged 5-25 across Australia through our Kids Helpline service. As youth mental health challenges rise and access to support becomes more limited, Kids Helpline remains a crucial lifeline, providing hope and assistance to those who need it most. This service is made possible thanks to unwavering community support, powered by Prize Home ticket purchases and generous donations.
