Organisation Summary

Operation Sunshine WA is a volunteer-run charity helping women and children displaced by family and domestic violence and/or under the care of child protection services in Western Australia.

Many women and children are displaced in traumatic circumstances with no more than the clothes on their backs. They need our help to ensure they have the essential and comfort items needed to provide for their day-to-day needs and give them a sense of dignity in a time of crisis.

Sunshine Packs: Each year, thousands of children and young people are displaced from their homes and their families when entering out-of-home care or escaping family violence. Sunshine Packs provide these young people with essential and comfort items to help ease their transition into their new living arrangements.

Courage Kits: Women are often forced to escape family and domestic violence without preparation and leave everything behind. Courage Kits provide essential and comfort items to support these women at a time of extreme vulnerability and ensure they have the items needed to care for their personal needs.
