Here are three of our favourites.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #808080; font-size: 24px;\"><b>Kids Xpress<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Raising children is the most important and rewarding endeavor most of us will ever embark upon, but it is difficult even under the best of circumstances. Add in difficulties like caring for a child with special needs, trauma or even homelessness, the challenges with child rearing can grow to a whole new level of hopelessness. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s where the work of <\/span><a style=\"color: #808080;\" href=\"https:\/\/kidsxpress.org.au\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">KidsXpress<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> comes in. By offering 10 week programs, coinciding with the school calendar, KidsXpress gives children the opportunity to be immersed in programs like Group, Co-led and Expressive therapy.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Combining each of these therapies together ensures a well-rounded approach to success. Expressive therapy is unique but incredibly beneficial to children who have been subjected to trauma or deal with issues related to social function, like those symptoms associated with Autism and Aspergers. Expressive therapy enables sensory engagement when traditional verbal and cognitive therapies are less effective or not an option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">The work of KidsXpress ensures that these challenges are not insurmountable and even helps to build bridges within the community that prevents parents from being in constant \u201cpanic mode\u201d while actually helping them and their children to thrive in a network of folks who find themselves in similar circumstances searching for similar solutions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-3351 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/designbx.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Designbx_MothersDay-1024x341.png\" alt=\"Designbx_MothersDay\" width=\"617\" height=\"202\" \/><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; font-size: 14px; color: #808080;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"><b>How you can give:<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\"> Because their services are in such high demand, there is a long list of families eager to join.<\/span> <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/kidsxpress.org.au\/donate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Donate to KidsXpress here<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">. Every little bit helps bring those struggling most closer to the support they need, and your contribution is tax deductible!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #808080; font-size: 24px;\"><b>Habitat for Humanity Australia<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Here at Designbx the old adage, \u201cThink global, act local\u201d rings true. That\u2019s why we love Habitat for Humanity Australia. We all know how important it is to be able to dwell with dignity, and their work does exactly that for those most in need.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Single mums make up 84-88% of lone parent homes in Australia, and up to 23% of lone-parents are living below the poverty line. This is a crucial problem that is only growing as housing affordability reaches crisis level across the country. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Habitat for Humanity Australia puts homeownership within reach for those struggling to put a roof over their family\u2019s heads. It is a long-term solution to the quicksand of poverty, a problem that impacts each and every one of us, whether we know it or not.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">So how does it work? Here is an excerpt from the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/habitat.org.au\/our-work-in-australia\/home-building-program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Habitat for Humanity Australia<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> website<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">\u201cFamilies partner with Habitat for Humanity in the construction of their home. Each partner family receives an interest free, 20 year loan based on 95 percent of the market value of the completed home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">Partner families contribute 500 hours of their own time in the planning and construction phases \u2013 this is called \u2018sweat equity\u2019 and is recognised in the 5 percent discount on market value that we return to them. For example, if a home is valued at $300,000, the partner family will have accumulated effectively $15,000 in equity, from their own efforts, on the day they move in.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Whether it\u2019s building homes right here in Australia, helping those in developing countries or areas devastated by a natural disaster, you know that your financial and on-the-ground volunteering contributions are going to great use.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">If you love the idea of building something with your bare hands, then Habitat for Humanity is an excellent way to give back. Additionally, you can help by making a financial contribution, or by potentially organising a team building effort with your work colleagues. There are so many great ways to get engaged!<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">Here in Australia, the program is run differently state-by-state. So please check the website to see how to best participate in your community.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #808080; font-size: 24px;\"><b>One Girl<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">What a difference an education can make. Everything about One Girl is empowering and hopeful, which is no small feat given the problems they tackle are oh-so-big. This organisation is in the business of educating 1 million girls in some of the most impoverished parts of Africa. One Girl\u2019s work is helping to decrease rates of everything from child brides to infant mortality and the payoffs have been far reaching. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">For instance, did you know that the rate of infant mortality REDUCES a staggering 5-10% for every year a girl stays in school? Additionally, educated mothers are much more likely to pass on their education to their children, and are more than twice as likely to send their children to school. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-3364 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/designbx.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Screen-Shot-2017-05-01-at-8.16.50-AM-1024x235-1.png\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2017-05-01 at 8.16.50 AM\" width=\"602\" height=\"154\" \/><\/span><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; font-size: 14px; color: #808080;\"><a style=\"color: #808080; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.onegirl.org.au\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Image reference\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #808080;\">It\u2019s easy to feel completely overwhelmed by the devastating problems the One Girl organisation handles, that we sometimes end up giving up before we even begin.
