Our purpose is to work to effect change to prevent abuse and neglect.
Achieving this goal requires all adults to take responsibility for identifying, reporting and ultimately stopping all forms of child abuse. Therefore, awareness of child abuse in its many facets and recognising the signs of abuse is the first step to identifying and taking action. Equally, understanding how to handle a disclosure and where to turn to for help is just as important.
"The Verandah has chosen Child Matters as a charity to work with as the message they deliver and the training they provide is, unfortunately, essential in today’s society. Child Matters are a proactive, empowering organisation that see value in developing partnerships with organisations, and supporting those who help them.
Not only do we get to help a wonderful organisation that in turn helps others, we have seen a flow on effect for our own business that will make this partnership sustainable long into the future.
We look forward to a long and rewarding partnership with Child Matters as they deliver child protection training, community education and influence a societal change for the protection and wellbeing of our children."
"Kiwi Commercial Cleaning supports Child Matters by way of a percentage of monthly turnover. The primary reason we do it this way is to keep our hearts and minds constantly reminded that our work has meaning beyond just us – for every office we clean and toilet we scrub, all of us at Kiwi Commercial Cleaning know that vulnerable children are being protected from terrible harm.
We feel connected to a bigger family and that makes us feel good! Sounds selfish, but it works!"
