Get to know Little Dreamers` new mascot, Bowie, designed by 11 year old Young Carer, Abigail β¨π
Bowie is inspired by Abigail`s sister, who is always funny and bright, even when things get tricky! Abigail and her sister help to care for their older brother, who has Autism.
We think Bowie perfectly sums up what it is to be a Young Carer - they are caring, resilient, and love to spread joy to others β€

It`s been a big 2023 here at Little Dreamers! β¨
We wanted to share with you a few highlights and challenges that we`ve encountered...
This year, we`ve seen:
π Demand for support increase by 24%
β€ Engagement in our programs more than double
πCommunity donations drop by 49%
So, while we`ve experienced tremendous growth, we now face the challenge of sustaining this momentum. And we need your help!
This holiday season, consider making a donation equivalent to one extra person at your family gathering. By doing so, you`re helping a Young Carer gain access to life-changing support through Little Dreamers.

Welcome to the first of our December Wishlist Wednesday series! π
Each Wednesday leading up to Christmas, we`ll be unwrapping a special Young Carer`s wishes for their Dream Experience. If you can help us turn these dreams into reality (π maybe you know someone, work somewhere, etc.), please get in touch!
β€οΈ Our first Young Carer is 10-year-old Storm, from QLD.
Storm cares for her mum, who has stage 4 Ovarian Cancer and needs support with general household duties such as cooking, cleaning, making beds and providing emotional support to her siblings.
Storm would love to have a Dream Experience where she can spend rare and precious one-on-one time with her mum! Check out her ideas below.
Can you help us make Storm`s Dream come true? Shoot us a DM or email dreams@littledreamers.org.au π©
