SIDS and Kids provide bereavement support for individuals and families who experience the death of their baby or young child during pregnancy, birth or infancy. This includes miscarriage, stillbirth, neonatal death, sudden infant death (SIDS) and the death of a child up to 6 years of age.
Over the last 14 years SIDS and Kids has been instrumental in reducing the infant mortality rate by around 85% through its Safe Sleeping Program. More recently it has broadened its programs to support families and the community following stillbirth and the sudden and unexpected death of infants and young children regardless of the cause.
The SIDS and Kids ACT, Hunter & NSW offices utilise Kia Souls to help run their programs, services and outreach.

Health Promotion Manager of SIDS and Kids NSW, Margaret McSpedden, says that research tells them that parents who have experienced the unimaginable loss of their baby or young child are best supported in a comfortable and familiar environment.
"The generous provision of these six cars from Kia enables counsellors and education staff from SIDS and Kids ACT, Hunter & NSW to more effectively support bereaved parents in their homes," Ms McSpedden said.

Meals on Wheels are at the heart of many communities in New South Wales. 35,000 volunteers deliver 4.5 million meals to 15,000 clients across the state.
The NSW Meals on Wheels Association offers more than just meals, as their volunteers provide daily social interaction which enables frail older people and younger people with disabilities and their carers to stay in their own homes.
