FROM THE MINISTER


The Honorable Simone McGurk, Minister for Child Protection, Women’s Interests;
Prevention of Family and Domestic Violence; Community Services, shares her
thoughts on Operation Sunshine WA and the impact Sunshine Packs can have for
children in crisis.


ABOUT US


WELCOME TO
OPERATION SUNSHINE WA





Operation Sunshine WA is a volunteer run charity helping women and children
displaced by family and domestic violence and/or under the care of child
protection services in Western Australia.

Many women and children are displaced in traumatic circumstances with no more
than the clothes on their backs. They need our help to ensure they have the
essential and comfort items needed to provide for their day to day needs and
give them a sense of dignity in a time of crisis.

SUNSHINE PACKS

Each year thousands of children and young people are displaced from their homes
and their families when entering out-of-home care or escaping family violence.
Sunshine Packs provide these young people essential and comfort items to help
ease their transition into their new living arrangements.

COURAGE KITS

Women are often forced to escape family and domestic violence without
preparation, and leaving everything behind. Courage Kits provide essential and
comfort items to support these women at a time of extreme vulnerability and
ensure they have the items needed to care for their personal needs.

TESTIMONIALS


FEEDBACK FROM RECIPIENTS

We had two kids come into our care last Tuesday with nothing, but turned up with
your amazing bags. The two year old carries her teddy everywhere, she loves it.
Thanks so much!

FOSTER CARER

Watching children opening their Sunshine Packs is such a delight. Sometimes they
can be a little bit shy, but once they see all of their goodies they tend to
relax and be a bit more open to having a chat with their new Case Workers and
their new families.

SENIOR CASE WORKER - FOSTER AGENCY

We couldn’t believe the amount of items in the little backpacks for the
children. There were items in there that we hadn’t even thought of, but were so
significant in a child’s immediate need and to feel like it wasn’t borrowed – It
was ALL theirs.

WOMEN'S REFUGE CHILD ADVOCACY WORKER

Because we live in a small town we struggle to have things on hand…. These packs
mean that we have the security knowing that in each bag it has absolutely
everything a child will need… The toys, books, colouring in pencils, or a diary
for the older kids are just crucial in being able to express themselves in
what’s often a traumatic time.

CPFS WORKER

It’s rough on a child coming into care, it’s very distressing for all involved.
Having something to call their own and something new just for them, I feel, is
very important. We are very lucky to have Operation Sunshine WA supporting us
and our children in care.

SENIOR CASE WORKER - FOSTER AGENCY

I had two little boys come late Tuesday night with nothing except a Sunshine
back pack. I can’t even explain how excited they were to open it and find some
pj’s, playdough, books and “a beautiful soft teddy” (his words). Thank you so
much for everything you do.

FOSTER CARER

The magical smile on the face of the young recipient at a time of trauma or risk
really brings home how vulnerable these youngsters are and how much this gesture
from Operation Sunshine has a positive and engaging effect.

BREVET SENIOR SERGEANT

Thank you, Leah, for dropping off a pink and blue back pack full of things to
delight our little visitors. New socks, undies, pj’s, fluffy puppy and pussy
cat, colouring book and pencils, story books, hair brush, toothbrush and paste.
It was all very much appreciated.

FOSTER CARER

The children all loved their presents, and the general consensus from everyone
(including staff) was that the presents were really special. Thank you for
adding a little sunshine this Christmas to children’s lives.

SENIOR MANAGER CHILD & FAMILY - FOSTER AGENCY

An 8 year old girl loved the actual bag, and when she opened it she found it
hard to contain herself with all the items inside, asking “is this all for
me?!!!!

WOMEN'S REFUGE CHILD DEVELOPMENT OFFICER

It’s the little things that make all the difference. He was so excited when he
opened his Sunshine Pack and saw all of the amazing stuff that was inside. He
spent hours afterward drawing in his colouring book, playing with slime and the
other toys that were in there, even making sure that everything in his bag had
its own place in his new bedroom. The second he saw his pj’s with the spaceship
he couldn’t wait to put them on as his new bedroom is space themed with stars
and planets. Thank you so much for everything you have done, definitely brought
a little ray of sunshine into his day when he received his bag.

FOSTER CARER

The Sunshine Packs provide the children with a sense of belonging, especially if
they have entered care with little to no belongings.
