Our mission is to provide and promote positive health outcomes for Victorians with disability through sport and recreation. We believe everyone should have the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of an active lifestyle, catch up with friends and participate in their local community. We work in partnership and consult with Victorians with disability, carers, volunteers, sport and recreation sector representatives, disability service organisations, schools, researchers, health professionals, government, philanthropic organisations and community groups to fulfil our mission. People with disability can engage in many different types of sport and recreational pursuits. For most sports, if the activity doesn’t work for all abilities, it can usually be adapted to enable everyone to participate. There are sport and recreation activities available to suit all types of disabilities, level of ability and activity interests. We are passionate about connecting people with opportunities, assisting individuals to locate activities most suitable to them. The generous donations of Australians help us achieve these goals, by providing much-needed support and resources.

Both charities are focused on underprivileged children and their families living exclusively in the Province of Gaza, a highly impoverished area in southern Mozambique.The sister-charities are financially independent but both intervene directly on the ground through local established operations in Xai-Xai, Chongoene and Chokwé. This is a mostly rural area heavily affected by AIDS where children typically belong to one-parent only families, have HIV-infected relatives or are already orphans.
