Core offering

Thriive WA delivers free, in-person respite and youth development programs for at-risk and disadvantaged children aged 7–16 across Western Australia. Its flagship offering pairs each child 1:1 with a trained young leader during overnight camps, single-day programs, and remote-community outreach, supported by a young leader training pipeline and a professional referral intake process.

Product overview

Thriive WA is a registered charity offering a portfolio of youth development and respite programs for at-risk and disadvantaged children aged 7-16 in Western Australia. The core offering consists of overnight Kids and Youth Camps (paired with a 1:1 young leader model), Day Programs/Family Funfests for accessible single-day engagement, and a Remote Communities Program extending services to regional WA. A Young Leader Development program trains mentors (many former participants) to staff the camps, creating a cycle of alumni giving back. The organization also operates a professional referral pathway (Refer a Child) for social workers and other professionals to connect eligible children to programs.
