Bundle of Joy
In May 2012, the Federal Government will deliver the Budget – a document that shapes the activities of our nation. We are praying this Budget will not only be beneficial for Australians, but will also deliver a
‘Bundle of Joy’ for mothers and children living in poverty.
We are looking for church mothers’ groups, playgroups and others interested in standing up for global child health who can help encourage the Australian Government to increase funding and focus on reducing child mortality by signing and delivering letters to their representatives in Parliament.
The special action kit below provides the tools and resources needed to share your support for reducing preventable deaths of children under five. It also ensures our elected representatives in Parliament hear strong voices encouraging action on this injustice.
