Thank you for electing to become the Stewart House Activist for your school!
We welcome you as an active ambassador of our unique program. Your involvement will assist us enormously as you facilitate sharing Stewart House information with your colleagues, including newsletters, the student placement process, the Department’s workplace giving scheme, and school fundraising occasionally and where appropriate.
With your help, we can continue supporting and optimising the health and wellbeing of the 1600 vulnerable young people who visit us each year.
It’s as simple as seeking the support of your principal and providing us with your email and contact details below. Once we have received your details, we will be in touch with some information to help champion the Stewart House cause in your school.
