Project Spotlight

Welcome to Givewell's Project Spotlight. Each month we highlight a project for which a charity is currently seeking funds. We also provide details on how to give directly for this project.
Project description: It is almost nine years since Zoe's Place began and it has been a time of raising awareness of the very real and urgent need of the families who have a child with a life limiting illness to have respite in their homes and a welcoming place to come and stay for a few days break from the daily stress and strain of caring for the total family. The support at home, through trained volunteers is already happening from the Sunshine Coast to the Gold Coast, in Ipswich and across greater Brisbane Construction of Zoe's Place Respice Centre has already commenced. Visit the website http://www.zoesplace.com.au/donate.html to view a construction update. Stage 1 will allow the Family Support Service in homes to expand and enable Zoe's Place to receive sick children and their families. Stage 1 is estimated to cost just under $1,000,000, which is within the budget, but a further $3,000,000 is needed to complete the whole complex and be able to receive up to eight families and offer the support of respite, counselling, palliative care of the dying child and special care of siblings who are often adversely affected. Can donors/grant makers give directly for this project? Yes If so, how?
Is there an allowance for administration costs? No more than 1%. Contact details for further information: | |||||
