Variety chief executive Chris Chatterton told 6PR Mornings host Simon Beaumont that, in just 10 days, the children’s charity received nearly $800,000 in applications – all from children living with a disability, a long-term illness or experiencing disadvantage.
“The need is increasing all the time and the support that we get is much more important than it ever has been”, he said.
To help meet this demand, Variety is asking Western Australians to give generously this June, with a generous supporter offering to match all donations.
