Join Team VACCA and raise funds to keep Aboriginal children connected to culture!

You can run with pride at events across Victoria by being part of Team VACCA and supporting Victoria’s leading Aboriginal children and family services agency.

VACCA – the Victorian Aboriginal Child and Community Agency – is the peak voice for Aboriginal children in Victoria. Founded in 1977, VACCA provides over 80 programs and services across the state to support culturally strong, safe and thriving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, young people, families and communities.

Run for Culture

By joining Team VACCA you are supporting vulnerable Aboriginal children in care to connect to culture and grow up strong and proud. Your fundraising efforts will help us continue to support children to participate in cultural programs like our Cultural Camps – where young people learn their local customs, lores, meet their Elders and connect to Country. You will also be funding essential cultural events such as NAIDOC and Christmas which are integral for children in care to connect to their family, wider community and practice culture together.

Join Team VACCA

There are more than 2,500 Aboriginal children in Victoria in care who need our support throughout the year. Join Team VACCA and run for culture, and support our vision for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander self-determination – live, experience, and be.
