Make a difference
Most children in care have their belongings moved in black bin bags or plastic shopping bags. This reinforces their feeling of being worthless.
With your help we will provide bags and promote their incredible value and worth.

–Did you know that it’s normal to give children in care bin bags to carry their belongings during moves within the system?
Madlug Foundation is a charity on a mission to ensure no child in care carries their belongings in a bin bag. Since 2015, we’ve distributed over 110,000 bright and durable pack-away travel bags to children entering the care system.
This provides them with a sense of dignity and ownership during a difficult transition.
We help children and young people in care by empowering them and promoting their self-worth and dignity.
