Sponsor Testimonials

“I am delighted to acknowledge support for a wonderful charity who operate in a very professional and caring manner. Of course I am writing about TLC for kids and Tim Conolan and his small but very effective team. I congratulate them on the way they interacted with 3AW 693 and Magic 1278 in regards to the TLC for kids radiothon conducted in October.

On the day I had a first hand experience of how TLC for kids operates and that was a very pleasant experience.

The dedicated and professional volunteers, along with the full time staff were totally in control of the  live to air radiothon that highlighted a wonderful cause with wonderful ambassadors for TLC for kids. In a tough world it was a pleasure to support them and I urge anyone either in a cash or in kind support to become involved with TLC for kids.”

“MOR Cosmetics involvement with TLC for kids originated in 2006 and today remains our charity of choice. Although we are constantly contacted by many worthy charities, we are truly humbled by and in awe of the incredible service that TLC for kids provides to needy children and their families nationally – currently assisting 515,000 cases annually.

We know TLC for kids to be a unique organisation that provides a special and often underrated service, formulated and actioned on a case by case basis to best suit the individual or families. Whether it is providing toys to distract a sick child from the harshness of medicine, to providing petrol or nearby accommodation for a family to visit their child or sibling in hospital, or just providing simple necessities such as toiletries or sleepwear, we can always be confident it will be delivered.

As a charity partner, with TLC for kids you can be assured that:

  • There is no red tape with TLC for kids.
  • There is no political agenda with TLC for kids.
  • There is just honest, genuine extended care for those in need, where the job gets done.

At MOR we view TLC for kids as an unsung hero and we ask other corporations to join us in supporting this wonderful charity. TLC for kids deserves to have its profile raised to generate urgently needed funds to allow them the ability to give greater support to those less fortunate.

It is the simple, practical and selfless approach by TLC for kids that truly captured our corporate imagination. Let it also capture yours.”

“When the ETU made the decision to become a foundation sponsor of TLC for kids, we had the full support of our members. TLC for kids’ services have a huge impact on kids’ health, and they play an important role in helping kids through the toughest times in hospital. We’re proud to be able to say our ongoing contributions will assist TLC for kids to carry out their vital work.”

“Kmart approached TLC for kids to come on board with our coin collection program in late 2009. We were inspired by the work TLC conducted across the country and their unique way of helping children was something we wanted to get behind. Throughout the year we have developed a strong partnership with the team and are proud to be able to support such a deserving charity. We hope to be able to raise their profile so they can extend their services further and look forward to working with them in the years to come. Having operated in over 400 Australian hospitals for the past 12 years, TLC is a trusted support service in the medical industry offering unconditional support to kids doing it tough in hospital. The team work tirelessly to help enrich the lives of others through the various programs they offer and live by their mission to help put smiles back on sick kids faces. We would encourage you to get on board and help support TLC in any way you can.”

Guy Russo,
Managing Director, Kmart Australia

“I discovered TLC for kids in 2007, and I was immediately moved by their compassion and ambition.

What struck me about the charity was how well known they were in the medical industry, and how active they are as an organisation, yet how reasonably undiscovered they were in the public eye. The fact is, TLC for kids handles the tough stuff no one else is taking ownership of - the practical, relevant services that really make a difference. They keep their services fresh and relevant by having strong relationships with hospitals, and also by hiring ex-hospital staff, who have their heads around the real issues.

What's great is that TLC is on the cusp of significant growth and we believe the Australian public will grab onto their cause with both hands, once they learn the importance of their work.

At Salvo Property Group, we make a concerted effort to find and support the truly worthy causes, and we know we've chosen wisely with TLC for kids.”
