VIEW provides women with the opportunity to meet regularly with other women from all walks of life, establish lasting friends and help disadvantaged Australian children through supporting the work of children's charity, The Smith Family. Education and leadership opportunities are also part of the VIEW offering, in addition to the chance to be purposeful in supporting community need. VIEW is a valued part of the Smith Family. Through social, community and fundraising activities VIEW members have supported the work of The Smith Family for more than 50 years.

VIEW is proud to be The Smith Family's single largest community sponsor of Learning for Life Students. Nationally, VIEW members sponsor more than 1,100 disadvantaged students, enabling them to get the most from their education through assistance and support from The Smith Family's Learning for Life program. We do this because we believe that by helping disadvantaged children succeed at school, we can have a lasting impact on their lives and potential generations to come.

🌟 Mayor Cr Jodie Ashworth loves nothing more than getting out into the community and last week's visit to the Bairnsdale VIEW Club June meeting was a great reminder why.

VIEW Clubs (Voice, Interests and Education of Women) bring local women together while raising vital funds for The Smith Family's Learning for Life program and the Bairnsdale club currently sponsors 20 local students, helping change the trajectory of young lives right here in our region.

The Mayor took the chance to share a little about her own journey too, from small business and tourism to financial counselling, and what's shaped her approach as your Mayor as well as presenting on their club's chosen topic which was Council's Homes for Everyone position paper.

Thank you to the Bairnsdale VIEW Club for the warm welcome - we love seeing the difference organisations like yours make within our community💛

At our April General Meeting, members of The Smith Family Bairnsdale came and spoke to our members about the programs they manage and the support provided to children and families across the region and the state. So interesting for our members to hear about this and have their questions answered. Equally important was the opportunity for our TSF colleagues and our members to have the opportunity to deepen our relationships. Thanks for coming, Amanda, Kim & Natasha.
