Lighthouse is in urgent need of foster carers who are willing to help better the lives of vulnerable children in the northern and southern Melbourne regions.
We are looking for people from all walks of life, who are willing to open their hearts and their homes to children who urgently need care.
We recognise that the fostering journey is not always easy, but at Lighthouse we ensure that we are with you every step of the way. We care for you, so you can care for them.
