Foster carers play a vital role in the lives of children and young people who, through no fault of their own, may have endured traumatic or difficult experiences.

By providing a stable home to a child or young person, who is not able to live with their family, you can set them on a path to a brighter future.

MacKillop is urgently in need of foster carers in New South Wales, Victoria and Western Australia.

MacKillop foster carers come from all backgrounds and walks of life.

As a foster carer you can:

  • be single or have a partner
  • have children of your own or not
  • own or rent your home, so long as you have a spare bedroom
  • work, stay at home, study or be retired
  • be from any culture, religion or sexual orientation
