About Joondalup Inc

Grandcarers WA
Soroptimist International Joondalup members host catering, support and events for Grandcarers WA group at the Dugdale St, Warwick premises. It is such an integral part of our community, with many Grandparents requiring support to help out with their grandchildren.
Grandcarers WA is a registered charity offering support services to grandparents who are raising their grandchildren on a full-time basis. There are many reasons why grandparents are raising grandchildren. It may be because of the death of a parent or that parents are not able to provide the social and emotional support for their children. Sadly in our community the increased abuse of alcohol and drugs has meant that children are being neglected and in some cases abused.

Starting Over Support - SOS
SOS is a volunteer based, non-profit organisation that provides furniture and household items to people who have become homeless through domestic violence or crisis. SOS recieves very little funding and relies on grants, donations and volunteers. SIJ donate money to purchase SOS Buckets of Love. Each family or person recieves a washing basket filled with essential cleaning materials, bucket,soap,toiletries, detergent, toilet brushes, dustpan and brush, cloths, sponges, tea toewels, and multipurpose sprays. Also whern the need arises we provide kettles and toasters.
