COMMUNITY NEWS - SunnyKids pathways

SunnyKids has strengthened its commitment to supporting vulnerable children and young people with the acquisition of Altitude Scholarships, which will now operate as a dedicated program within the SunnyKids organisation.

This integration enhances SunnyKids’ capacity to provide educational scholarships, mentorship and long-term opportunity pathways for students across South East Queensland. Altitude Scholarships will continue delivering its established program, now backed by the broader infrastructure, governance and community reach of SunnyKids 

SunnyKids CEO Kathleen Hope said, “Education is one of the most powerful protective factors in a young person’s life. By bringing Altitude Scholarships into SunnyKids, we are strengthening our ability to walk alongside children and young people not only through crisis, but into a future defined by opportunity and achievement.”

Altitude Scholarships has built a strong reputation for providing financial support, mentoring and practical guidance to students facing disadvantage.

SunnyKids is a leader in child welfare and educational support in the region, with its holistic approach to breaking cycles of disadvantage through early intervention, family support and long-term opportunity creation.
