Path Of Hope Foundation

Path Of Hope Foundation Family and domestic violence can be experienced by people of all classes, religions, ethnicity, ages, abilities and sexual preference.

Path of Hope is a Perth Rotary initiative mobilising Rotarians to support The Salvation Army’s services that provide safety, support, and empowerment to women and children escaping family and domestic violence, while raising awareness in local communities Domestic violence is behaviour which results in physical, sexual and/or psychological damage, forced social isolation, economic deprivation, or

behaviour which causes the victim(s) to live in fear. In 2016, it was estimated that violence against women and their children cost the Australian economy $22 billion (KMPG, 2016). Nationwide, it is estimated that one in three women experience physical violence and one in five women experience sexual violence in their lifetime (ABS, 2006). In Western Australia between the 1 July 2015 and 30 June 2016, police attended 53 571 domestic and family violence incidents. that is more than 1,000 reports a week. In Perth, 70% of all emergency room visits are domestic violence related. The Salvation Army provides secure accommodation for women and women with children in a number of confidential locations throughout Australia (this includes emergency accommodation and medium-term accommodation). Through the provision of personal support and practical assistance, the Salvos aim to promote independent living, encouraging women to take control of their lives and helping empowering them to break the cycle of abuse through a range of workshops and living skills programs. The Rotary Club of Perth brings together business and professional leaders in order to provide humanitarian services, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace in the world. Together, Rotary and The Salvation Army aim to end the cycle of domestic violence through a joint partnership where Rotary provides the necessary funding to The Salvation Army to deliver the operational resources and expertise to tackle this issue of epidemic proportions.

“Path of Hope” is the foundation project which represents the formal collaboration of these two internationally recognised not-for-project organisations in their fight to end domestic violence globally.

✨ Around the world in magical story adventures ✨

Our incredible Marketing Interns and Data Science & IT Interns at the Path of Hope Foundation are helping build a magical online world where children and families can explore countries, cultures, landmarks, stories, and adventures through interactive journeys inspired by Google Earth.

Together they are creating:
🕯️magical story guides
🗺️ interactive world exploration
📚 imaginative learning experiences
🌍 virtual travel adventures
✨ hidden clues and discoveries
💛 lessons about kindness, courage, friendship, empathy, boundaries, and curiosity

This growing platform has been designed for children WITH their families, helping encourage conversations and learning around healthy relationships through storytelling, imagination, exploration, and magical adventures together.

From enchanted forests and hidden pathways to castles, mountains, opera houses, and extraordinary places around the world, children and families can safely discover the wonder of storytelling and world exploration from home.

Most importantly… these magical adventures are FREE for children with their families everywhere to enjoy.

A huge thank you to our talented interns who are combining creativity, storytelling, technology, mapping, design, imagination, and emotional learning to help bring this beautiful vision to life.

We are also very much looking forward to welcoming our Winter Interns arriving in June, who will continue helping expand these magical journeys and interactive experiences for children and families.

🌱 Take an internship with a difference this winter break

Charlotte Ford didn’t set out to work in juvenile justice—but a McCusker Centre for Citizenship internship changed the direction of her career.

While studying a Bachelor of Science at UWA, Charlotte undertook a McCusker Centre internship with Patches Paediatrics, where she explored the links between disability, health, policy and the justice system.

That experience sparked a lasting commitment to social equity and juvenile justice.

This winter break, take an internship with a difference.

Apply your degree in real‑world settings, contribute to meaningful community outcomes and discover pathways you may never have considered.

“Make the most of your internship by embracing opportunities to develop new skills and upskill. Tell your supervisor if there’s a specific skill relevant to the internship that you would like to learn. Ask your supervisor about their professional history and how they got to their role today - learn from them and let them be your mentor!”

Sophia interned with The Kids Research Institute Australia through our program in 2022 during her Bachelor of Commerce degree and now works with Creating Communities Australia as a Consultant.
