Why did you 191 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 3: get involved? How did you find it? Was it a 192 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,719 Speaker 3: friend of yours doing something? Because it can't I don't 193 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 3: know how many years old the charity is. 194 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 7: We started in twenty fourteen, and I did that. I've 195 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,959 Speaker 7: been a care of foster care a long long time 196 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 7: ago for a short time, and certainly have experienced children 197 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 7: arriving with nothing, even when it's a planned placement, and 198 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 7: just not that long ago. In twenty fourteen, I knew 199 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 7: I was finishing up my work and had a couple 200 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,959 Speaker 7: of other jobs, but just part time jobs, and thought 201 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 7: I could help. And when I found out packed are 202 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 7: being delivered from far north Queensland down to child protection 203 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 7: offices and foster care agencies in Victoria, I couldn't believe it. 204 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 7: I knew that, you know, Victorians are a wonderful bunch 205 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 7: and there's a lot of love and generosity and sharing 206 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 7: and caring in our community. So I figured it would 207 00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 7: be helpful to do what this been I was doing 208 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 7: in Farnol's Queensland here in Victoria. So I started doing 209 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 7: it and it took off because there's just so much need. 210 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, but Sally, I've got to say thank 211 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 3: you so much for what you and your team of 212 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 3: volunteers do. And you know, just here when it was 213 00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 3: starting in the kitchen, and I don't know if I 214 00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 3: your whole story and the volunteers that we've spoken to them, 215 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 3: ut I found it. It's both inspiring. It's a heartbreaking situation. 216 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 3: You know that children are in that situation, but they are. 217 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 3: And the thing is that people can make a difference 218 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,200 Speaker 3: and they want to make a difference. And there's something 219 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 3: about the simpleness of that backpack being given to a 220 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 3: little kid, you know, and about the torch and you know, 221 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 3: the pajamas and the tracksuit pants. These are just basic 222 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:23,800 Speaker 3: needs that you think every child should just have. 223 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 4: But that isn't the. 224 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 3: Reality of the situation that unfortunately, you guys would see 225 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 3: every single day. So I'm just so glad that you 226 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 3: actually can feel the love from so many people, Like 227 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 3: I said, all over Australia, the world. When people hear 228 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 3: about this charity, the magical work you guys do, I 229 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 3: don't know, it just changes your heart. You want to 230 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 3: try and do whatever you can, whether it's five bucks, 231 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 3: ten bucks. It's amazing and I'm so glad. I'm so 232 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 3: glad that so many kids are going to be helped. 233 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 7: Well, me too. I don't know if I can say much. 234 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 7: Mold defile there's duty happy tears again, Yeah, but yes, 235 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 7: it is truly amazing that so many people have heard 236 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,760 Speaker 7: you and have now heard about Backpack to these kids 237 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,560 Speaker 7: and we'll, you know, just be more aware of the 238 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 7: fact that there's so many children. Just in Victoria there's 239 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 7: twelve or was twelve children. Now that number is higher 240 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 7: every day, every single day, twelve children being placed in 241 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 7: and out of home care placement, you know, and we 242 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 7: want to reach as many of them as we can. 243 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 7: And now now we can reach over one thousand. 244 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 3: Well, we're going to keep it going, all right, We're 245 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 3: going to keep it going.

This is how we are. 254 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 3: I think we just get distracted in the noise of 255 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 3: the world and the media and everything else that goes 256 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 3: on our lives. 257 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 4: People do want to help. 258 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 3: And when you hear about these beautiful kids, innocent kids 259 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,679 Speaker 3: wh've done nothing wrong, it was just you know, it 260 00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 3: should be the most important thing as a parent is 261 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 3: to make your kids feel safe and them not being safe. 262 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 3: You want to give them whatever you can to try 263 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 3: and take away some small amount of the pain.

So this money can be going to a 276 00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 5: more deserving charity. 277 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 7: Yeah, but this is where it is at at the 278 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 7: moment this morning.

So to have that release that 281 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 7: we don't have the pressure of raising the funds to 282 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 7: keep going and meeting the needs is phenomenal and really 283 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:28,560 Speaker 7: really helps us to concentrate more on the packs, what's 284 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 7: going in them, and getting them to the children, which 285 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 7: can be challenging, but we're I was becoming those obstacles 286 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 7: from restrictions and lockdowns and so on now. So that's 287 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,319 Speaker 7: why the numbers have gone up as far as the 288 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 7: request for our packs goes. And I don't know if 289 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:52,959 Speaker 7: your listeners would be aware that donating seventy five dollars 290 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 7: does complete a ME pack, my essentials pack, but the 291 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 7: value of that pack to the child, that value, the 292 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 7: retail value of what's in that pack is about four 293 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 7: hundred dollars. 294 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 3: It's even more than that. In a way, it's something 295 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,199 Speaker 3: you can't put a financial worth on. Is it just 296 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 3: a kid being given something small, a couple of things 297 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 3: that just shows them that they actually matter when I 298 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 3: guess they feel that they don't. 299 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 4: Is far more than four hundred dollars. 300 00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 3: And Sally good news, it is up to ninety two 301 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 3: hundred and eighty dollars.

We 529 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 3: were saying, how at the start of this year we 530 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,959 Speaker 3: met this amazing charity called Backpacks for vic Kids. And 531 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,199 Speaker 3: whenever I tell anyone about this charity, it just changes you. 532 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,560 Speaker 3: It changes your heart, it breaks it really wide open. 533 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,199 Speaker 3: But it also it lets you help, which is what 534 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 3: we're asking to do. So Backpacks for VIC Kids are 535 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,719 Speaker 3: a small charity we found out, and we found out 536 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 3: an hour ago from Sally set up seven years ago, 537 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 3: working out of volunteers front rooms, kitchens, garages, and the 538 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 3: idea is that children who are removed from a dangerous 539 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 3: home environment, often taken in the middle of the night, 540 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 3: with no time to pack any clothes or on the 541 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 3: other little personal belongings, are given a backpack with a 542 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 3: couple of essential items. It's a simple thing but in 543 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 3: such a situation, it helps those little kids just feel 544 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 3: a bit let's alone. Each backpack costs this voluntary run organization. 545 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 3: They're not a big chanter, but they have a huge heart. 546 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,439 Speaker 3: It costs them seventy five dollars and we promised them 547 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 3: at the start of this year that we do something 548 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 3: on the show at the end of the year to 549 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 3: help them, which is why yesterday at eight o'clock we 550 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 3: said can you can you help? And we had so 551 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 3: many conversations over the last couple of weeks like we 552 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 3: didn't want to ask for too much because we know 553 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,199 Speaker 3: what you've all been through and for a lot of you, 554 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 3: there's still a long way to go, and so asking 555 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 3: you suddenly for money when we're just opening up and 556 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 3: you've got real money worries Christmas coming up with summer, 557 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 3: I realized it was a big deal.

And 559 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 3: what that really means is twenty children need being helped 560 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 3: out with a simple thing of a backpack, which is 561 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 3: about fifteen hundred bucks.

Twenty four hours ago we told you 1050 00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:57,560 Speaker 3: about an amazing charity, but a very small charity with 1051 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:01,680 Speaker 3: a huge heart right here in Victoria. They're cool Backpacks 1052 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:04,160 Speaker 3: per Vic Kids and what they do set up seven 1053 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:08,280 Speaker 3: years ago, working out on volunteers front rooms and kitchens. 1054 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:12,120 Speaker 3: It's giving kids who are rescued from dangerous homes, often 1055 00:49:12,160 --> 00:49:14,000 Speaker 3: in the middle of the night, no time to pack 1056 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:16,640 Speaker 3: anything up. They get them a backpack with a couple 1057 00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:19,239 Speaker 3: of loo items in there, and that can be just pajamas, 1058 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 3: tracksuit pants, as simple as a torch. That the most 1059 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:26,000 Speaker 3: popular item is actually a torch, because when you are 1060 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 3: removed from your home a dangerous environment, you're taking somewhere else. 1061 00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:30,960 Speaker 3: These kids don't even know where the bathroom is in 1062 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,319 Speaker 3: the mid of night. Simple thing like a torch, just 1063 00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:35,680 Speaker 3: to sort of guide the round. That actually means something 1064 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 3: that is the reality of the situation those kids are in. 1065 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:41,720 Speaker 3: And I realized that whenever I tell anyone about this charity, 1066 00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:42,799 Speaker 3: it actually breaks your heart. 1067 00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:43,640 Speaker 4: It does change you. 1068 00:49:44,200 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 3: And it's important that we know about this because it's 1069 00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,759 Speaker 3: our responsibility to what we do, what can we do, 1070 00:49:49,120 --> 00:49:51,040 Speaker 3: which is why we're asking you for some money, and 1071 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:53,799 Speaker 3: it wally is some money. If you've given us, you've 1072 00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:56,839 Speaker 3: given those kids five dollars, ten dollars, that is, it's 1073 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,919 Speaker 3: worth much more than that. It's showing that you care 1074 00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,799 Speaker 3: and we're not anyway. If you sat listen to this 1075 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:04,319 Speaker 3: right now and you're not in able a situation, you're 1076 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:06,400 Speaker 3: going to help yourself.
