At Mates on a Mission, we understand that every child’s journey is different. That’s why we offer two pathways to ensure children facing life threatening illness can experience meaningful moments of joy, escape and connection, in a way that best suits their needs.
For families with a child living with a life threatening illness who are able to travel, we offer longer interstate holidays or local getaways designed to give children and their families time away from the everyday realities of treatment and care.
If you are part of a family in this situation, or know a family who may benefit, we would love to hear from you.
To apply for an extended getaway, please download and complete the application form below and email it to info@matesonamission.com.au.
As part of the process, a medical specialist report will be required to ensure the experience is safe and suitable for the child.
We also recognise that not every child can travel far from home. For these children, we offer MOAM Moments – smaller, carefully curated getaways, day trips and special experiences designed to create joy without the need for long distance travel.
MOAM Moments are created specifically for children whose medical needs or treatment schedules mean staying closer to home is essential, while still giving them something to look forward to and cherish.
To learn more or apply for a MOAM Moment, please visit our dedicated MOAM Moments page.
No matter the pathway, our purpose remains the same – to create meaningful, memory making moments for children when time is precious.
