Many children face complex health, education and welfare challenges that can affect how they grow, learn and thrive.

Through our Double Donation campaign, your support helped the Channel 7 Children’s Research Foundation—now called the Firefly Children's Foundation—raise more than $12,000, a combination of contributions from the community and a dollar-for-dollar match by the Beyond Bank Foundation to amplify the impact.

These funds are now supporting vital research and community programs that improve children’s health, education and welfare. This work is driving earlier diagnosis, more effective treatments and better models of care, especially for children experiencing mental health challenges, chronic illness and developmental delays.

For families, this means clearer pathways to support, better access to care and more confidence in the decisions they make for their children’s future.

Over time, this work contributes to a stronger, healthier community, where more children have the opportunity to grow up supported and reach their full potential.

Because you bank with Beyond Bank, this impact is possible. Your everyday banking helps fund initiatives like Double Donation, enabling organisations to reach more children and families who need it most.
