Trek4Kidz

Trek4Kidz raises much needed funds for the Starlight Children's Foundation of Australia

Started in 1997 by a small group of like-minded people from Tuross Head on the far south coast of NSW who decided to organize an event that would not only help change the lives of seriously ill children, but would provide a social event for people who share the drive and ambition for charity work & a keen interest in exploring the great Australian countryside and meeting the many characters our co

untry boasts. Trek4Kidz is an annual week-long outback adventure where we explore different regional areas of the Australian countryside by car. In our 28 years Trek4Kidz has visited more than 506 towns, 59 schools and raised over $3,015,965 for the Starlight Children’s Foundation. This support helps Starlight continue to deliver an array of programs designed to make children happy, lift their spirits and provide a positive distraction to seriously ill and hospitalised children. Trek4Kidz is different to most other car events as we are completely run by volunteers, we have no paid positions... this means 100% of the donations we receive are passed on to Starlight.
