First National Real Estate has announced that its major sponsorship for 2019 will be Kids Helpline, Australia’s free and confidential 24/7 counselling service for young people.
The national helpline has responded to more than 8 million contacts over the past 28 years, helping young people and families to manage the challenges of modern life.
First National Foundation chairman David Lovell said the network is keen to get involved.
“First National Real Estate is proud to help children and young people access the confidential guidance they need to cope with problems like cyber bullying, depression, homelessness, mental health or suicidal thoughts,” he said.
“The service aligns perfectly with First National’s ‘we put you first’ philosophy because it puts the families that live in our members’ communities first. We want to make sure that Kids Helpline has the backing it needs to respond to more calls for support than ever before, at anytime, for any reason, because all children and young people deserve to be heard.”
Mr Lovell said that with First National Real Estate’s support, Kids Helpline will become more powerful and better known across Australia.
He said that every 90 seconds, someone’s son or daughter, grandchild, niece, nephew, neighbour or friend gets in contact with Kids Helpline via its free call number or web chat service.
“By supporting Kids Helpline and working to raise awareness of the excellent support it provides young Australians, First National Real Estate is helping secure this important counselling resource, and we are certain this will have a positive impact on the families we serve on a daily basis.”
