The Lions Festival for Disadvantaged Children (WA) Inc. is a not-for-profit organisation committed to improving the lives of disadvantaged children across Western Australia. Our mission is to create inclusive and joyful experiences for children who may otherwise miss out due to social, economic, or health-related challenges.
We address the pressing issue of childhood disadvantage by hosting inclusive, community-based events that offer positive social experiences, such as the annual RAZZAMATAZZ VARIETY SHOW and the WORLD FESTIVAL OF MAGIC. These events provide entertainment, gifts, and refreshments to thousands of children and their families, free of charge.
Our organisation is uniquely positioned to deliver these programs due to our strong volunteer base, community/ local business partnerships, and decades of experience working directly with families and service providers across WA.
We are focused on expanding access to our events in regional areas, supporting local charities, and enhancing online event offerings to reach more children. Funding will directly support event logistics, transportation, gift packs, and accessibility services.
In 2023, we reached over 5,000 children across WA. Feedback from schools and families consistently highlights the emotional and social value of these experiences.

The show features a dynamic mix of magic, clowning, juggling, balancing, puppetry, acrobatics, and exceptional comedy routines, captivating and uplifting young audiences.
Sponsorship donations from the Western Australian business community cover the cost of tickets, allowing children and their carers to attend.

The expected outcomes are improved mental well-being for children, increased community inclusion, and sustained funding for local charities.
