Coffee4Kids
What is Coffee4Kids?
Coffee4Kids is a unique fully registered Deductible Gift Recipient Charitable Foundation, combining the simple but powerful act of donating the value of a cup of coffee each week to support the health, safety and wellbeing of children. In meeting our Vision and Mission we aim to partner with inspiring organisations, companies and individuals who are committed to making a difference to the lives of children by participating in our workplace giving program and other fundraising initiatives.
Coffee4Kids is based upon a simple philosophy, allowing any individual to contribute the value of a cup of coffee a week ($5.00 pre-tax) to worthwhile Children's Charities. We operate on the principle that by working together, we can make a difference for children in need. After all, giving up the cost of one cup of coffee a week certainly won't break the bank, but by pulling together as organisations, companies and individuals, our collective capacity to make a real difference is significant.
How was Coffee4Kids established?
Coffee4Kids was established by members of the NSW Rural Fire Service who saw an opportunity for their Service to make a real difference to the lives of children beyond their core role of fighting fires and saving lives. By pulling together the vast resources of the 700 staff and 70,000 Volunteers, the NSW Rural Fire Service saw that they were able to make a significant contribution as leaders in their community, inspire others to do the same.
Our Vision
Safe, healthy and happy children.
Our Mission
Making a difference to the health, safety and well being of children in areas such as:
• Intensive care
• Oncology
• Mental Health

Coffee4Kids Victorian Children's Bush Fire Appeal Fund
I know you are as shocked and saddened as I am over bush fire disaster that has swept through large parts of Victoria causing unprecedented loss of life and property. I hope that, like me, you would like to do something to give a helping hand to those affected by these fires, especially to children. To do this the Service’s sponsored charity, Coffee4Kids is running a special Bushfire appeal for the Victorian children in need called "The Coffee4Kids Victorian Children's Bush Fire Appeal Fund".
The Coffee4Kids Foundation As ambassador for Coffee4Kids I would like to invite you to our inaugural Ball to enjoy an atmosphere of fun and celebration for RFS members, their friends and families and raise much needed funds to make a difference to the health, safety and well being of Children in NSW and Victoria.
