The Carers Picnic was in full swing last Sunday, on the 30th August, and Family Spirit was more than ready to join the fun! From face painting, lolly-jar-guessing and lots of giveaways to hand out, our team was sure to be present and share the joy we have to offer.
A special thanks to Kate Washington MP for making an appearance, and for sharing her time with Family Spirit!

Most of us don’t think twice about what it’s like to live without loving parents, thousands of kids across New South Wales and Australia Australian do. We need good families to give the basic love and care at children deserve. Are you willing to make a change?

Contact Family Spirit today to foster a child.

A message from Archbishop Fisher to carers of Family Spirit. The work that we do here at Family Spirit holds great importance and value to a child’s life.

Not only is Family Spirit a Catholic organisation but it is an organisation who takes great care and responsibility of those who are vulnerable and can’t care for themselves.

We will continue to remain faithful to the teachings of Christ through the works of our patron Saint. St Joseph.
