Services

The Services Offered at UMFC

BECOME A FOSTER CARER


Meet Kelly, one of our foster carers.

Foster care can make an enormous difference in a child’s life. Giving them the care and support that they need will help them to grow. Carers are ordinary people doing extraordinary things. We have been providing Foster Care to the North East of Victoria for over 35 years.

We are a vibrant, committed service that supports Foster Carers and UMFC is looking for people from all walks of life to volunteer to become foster parents.

Your first step is to contact our recruitment team who will support you through the process.

HELP US TO HELP GROW KID'S DREAMS

DONATE TO TRUST IN KIDS

We've Established a Fund to Support Our Children In Achieving Their Dreams for the Future

Trust In Kids is an initiative of UMFC. The fund is for children and young people up to 21 years who have limited opportunities because of family, social, financial or other individual circumstances. Some of these children are affected by issues relating to family violence, mental health and drug and alcohol use. The fund is available for educational, social, recreational and cultural opportunities.

Your donation, no matter the amount, can make a real difference to the lives of children less fortunate than others.

You can also donate your time, skills or knowledge by volunteering at UMFC.

Aboriginal-Flag

UMFC acknowledges the First Peoples of Australia as the traditional custodians of the land on which we work. We acknowledge their culture is a living one, which relates to their ongoing connection to all things living and non-living on land, sea and sky. We pay our respect to their elders past and present. May our children of today lead us to a better tomorrow.
