Did you know… in up to 90% of (reported) cases of child sexual abuse, the offender is someone the child and family knows, loves and trusts?
Bravehearts White Balloon Day is an annual day to raise awareness about child sexual abuse and speak up for survivors.
Now in its 26th year, Bravehearts White Balloon Day has helped to educate the community about preventing this crime, whilst also helping to raise funds for Bravehearts’ essential counselling services and preventative education programs.
YOU can help to protect kids by getting involved in Bravehearts White Balloon Day this year and adding your voice to the thousands of people who will #BreakTheSilence on child sexual abuse on Friday 9 September 2022.
All you need to do is wear white and raise funds or donate on the day.

Please consider the impact of balloons on our environment and dispose of used balloons wisely. Please also note that releasing balloons outdoors is banned in some Australian regions and states.
