Variety – the Children’s Charity steps in where health care ends, providing direct help to children with special needs in BC. For over 56 years, Variety has ensured that children have the support to reach their potential and thrive.
Together we can be there when families need us most.
The annual Variety Show of Hearts Telethon will be returning as a 3-day event kicking off on Thursday, February 24 on Global News Morning followed by Global News at Noon and Global News Hour at 6 continuing with the same schedule on Friday, February 25 where you’ll get to meet some of the amazing kids you helped in 2021. The telethon itself will be airing on Saturday February 26 on Global BC from 1PM-5:30PM with some incredible musical acts to come!
As someone who both has special needs personally and knows firsthand the impact Variety can have on families (also had a family member many years ago given support), your support will allow a child living with Special Needs in BC to thrive in anyway they need (specialized therapy to help them develop mobility or speech, access to an autism assessment so a diagnosis can be confirmed as access to public assessments have a waitlist of 3 years or more in length or even a walker to help them walk).
Being able to say ‘YES’ to families when they reach out for Variety's help has never been more important than it is now as families are desperate and they have nowhere else to turn. Before the global health crisis, our Granting department was seeing 10 applications a week come in … now we are receiving 10 applications a day!
Each and every donation – regardless of the size – is making a huge difference in a child’s life and it means we are one step closer to working towards a future where all kids across BC are receiving the support they need.
Please show your heart and press the Donate Now button today to give towards my fundraising goal!
