For one day a year, tracky dacks become the fashion choice that says “I care.”
For one day each year, tracky dacks become a statement that says “I care.” Sick kids in hospital are encouraged to swap their pajamas for tracksuit pants to lift their mood. This May, join us to ‘dack up’ and show your support, together, we can let these children know Australia cares.
Ethan’s Story
Ethan was ten when his healthcare team identified the need for a safe and reliable way for him to stay hydrated following a kidney transplant. A request was submitted through the Rapid TLC Service to support this need.
Through the Rapid TLC Service, a water filtration system was provided, giving Ethan and his family confidence that their drinking water supports his ongoing health.
Ethan’s mum shared: “Your support has made a meaningful difference in his everyday life. Thanks to your kindness and generosity, I feel at ease knowing that my son and husband have access to purified water that supports their health and well-being every day.”
Where your donation will go
Tracky Dack Day is organised by TLC for Kids, Australia’s most inclusive children’s charity provides practical relief to sick kids and their families.
No sick child should wait for help or be excluded because of their illness, disability, or age. Yet many children and families fall through the gaps, facing challenges alone. Often, a small act of support can bring comfort, relief, or a moment of joy.
Since 1998, TLC for Kids has worked with healthcare professionals to deliver practical help and meaningful experiences through programs like Rapid TLC Service, TLC Ambulance, TLC Distraction Boxes, and Tap 2 Distract. With no waiting lists or restrictions, we support children of all conditions and disabilities, as many times as needed.
Where we operate
Our services have been delivered in over 400 hospitals across Australia and New Zealand.
TLC for Kids has partnered with Team Global Express in order to deliver our services across the entire nation, including regional and rural areas. This gives us the widest reach of any children’s charity in the country. You can view the hospitals here.
