1998 was a year to remember – Google was launched,
Pat Rafter won the US Open, The Spice Girls split and
The Mirabel Foundation was created. Fast forward
17 years and The Spice Girls are once again back together
while Mirabel has helped over 3,000 Australian children.
mirabel is now 17...
This year, like the many before, has been packed with opportunities for children to meet others in their situation. Whether it’s a large camp or small therapeutic group, these events are designed to give children meaningful experiences, ultimately shaping their future with optimism and a connection to Mirabel and the community.
There are always the anticipated challenges; increased numbers of children, drug use devastating families and the challenge of raising sufficient income. Fortunately, the commitment of the Mirabel Board, team and many others provides extensive wisdom to draw upon through the variable social, economic and political climates.
Adjusting to change is imperative, both for Mirabel and the families. However, reflecting on our 17 years there is also much that hasn’t changed. Restoring a sense of hope and belonging to these children’s lives still underpins every Mirabel program. Replacing their traumatic childhoods with love, stability and opportunities to not only give them the childhood and future they deserve but also the resilience to break the cycle of addiction and disadvantage.
It’s always a highlight to see children who were once hurt, confused and frightened grow into confident adults full of hope and optimism. It’s the reason Mirabel exists. It’s what our incredible volunteers, supporters and donors make possible.
Today it’s hard to even imagine life without Google and for so many Mirabel young people, they can’t remember life without Mirabel. And we can’t imagine life without them.
Jane Rowe, Founder/CEO
Assessment and Crisis Support at Mirabel involves the
provision of tailored intervention at the earliest possible
moment in a child’s life. For some, this will be at birth,
but for others it will be much later when they move to
the care of their extended family.
When I first lived with Nan I’d hide
under the bed and refuse to talk when
people came over. I’m 17 now and
I talk so much that they made me
captain of our school debating team.
2014-15: 354 new children referred for intervention & crisis support
Total number of children receiving assistance grew by 27%
assessment & crisis support
These vital groups provide grandparents and relative carers with a
supportive network where they can talk openly about their feelings
and experiences. This year, the support has extended to a Facebook
group to keep carers regularly connected with one another which
has been particularly beneficial for those carers living in rural areas.
kinship carer support groups
When Felix was little I worried a lot
about his future and whether I’d be able
to cope. Now that he’s 17 I’m so proud
of how we got through it together and
everything he’s achieved.
2014-15: 185 kinship carers participated in peer support groups
A total of 53 groups were facilitated throughout the year
Mirabel’s Therapeutic Groups allow primary school aged
children to develop: essential social skills, supportive
friendships and ways to cope with their difficult past.
therapeutic groups
When I was younger I was always angry
and found it hard to make friends.
Now that I’m 17, I feel calmer and
have a group of friends that mean the
world to me.
2014-15: 140 kids regularly participated in therapeutic groups
A total of 103 groups were facilitated throughout Victoria
Mirabel’s Education Program assists young people
to develop confidence at school and improve their
academic outcomes. This is achieved through educational
assessments, tutoring, school advocacy, homework groups
and the provision of essential school resources.
education
When I was 10 I told my teacher
I’d probably be on the dole when I
grew up. Now I’ve just turned 17,
have almost finished school and have
submitted my university preferences.
2014-15: 169 children received educational support
A total of 27 homework groups were facilitated in Melbourne
Mirabel’s Recreation and Social Inclusion Program gives children
the chance to enjoy themselves while building relationships
with peers who share a common past. In addition to planned
events, 1011 tickets were distributed so that families could
attend concerts, movies and various sporting events.
When I was younger I was jealous of all
the exciting things other kids got to do.
Now that I’m 17 I’ve done heaps of
awesome things with Mirabel and don’t
feel like I missed out on much at all.
recreation & social inclusion2014-15: 749 kids attended Mirabel camps, outings & fun events
A total of 1011 event tickets were distributed to families
Mirabel House provides a safe, happy and familiar environment
for children while their carers have a break from the daily
demands of raising a young family. It is also the perfect place
for families to experience a holiday together when life’s
circumstances have prevented such simple luxuries.
When I was nine I stayed at Mirabel
House for the first time and cried when
we had to leave. Now that I’m 17 I have
so many great memories from all the
times we stayed there.
mirabel house & respite2014-15: 288 children and carers benefited from respite
500+ eggs were enjoyed at our Mirabel House Easter Eggstravaganza
Mirabel’s Youth Support Program assists young people (aged
13-17 years) to develop essential life skills and work towards
a positive future. This year, the program has been extended to
include weekly Young Teens Groups across Melbourne.
When I was 12 I started doing stupid
things and got myself into some
trouble. At 17 I now have the sense
to make smarter choices.
2014-15: 280 young people needed intensive youth support
24 group workshops & 3 camps were facilitated for young people
youth support
Mirabel’s Family Camps and Events give kinship families time
together to recharge and strengthen their relationships away from
the daily stresses that impact their lives. Kinship carers regularly
report that these events have been life changing for them.
When I was 10 we went to our first Mirabel
camp and I couldn’t believe that every
family there was like ours. Now that I’m 17
I realise there are thousands of kids like me
whose Mum or Dad died from drugs.
family camps & events2014-15: 629 children & carers attended our family camps & events
Lord Somers Camp and Mirabel hosted 2 family camps
Mirabel actively campaigns to reduce the stigma experienced
by Mirabel children and carers through increased understanding
and the development of community programs. Mirabel meets
regularly with individuals, businesses, governments and community
organisations to raise awareness of the Mirabel families.
advocacy & awareness2014-15: 4568 people connected with Mirabel via social media channels
Jane Rowe spoke at the Virgin Unite Leadership Gathering
When I was five I used to tell people my
Mum was run over by a train. Now that
I’m 17 I can tell the truth without feeling
like people will judge me or my Mum.
Mirabel’s volunteers donate their time and skills to help us
to achieve our mission. Without their generous commitment
we would not be able to assist the large number of children
that we do.
When I was 13 a Mirabel volunteer
made me feel that I mattered and it
changed my whole outlook. At 17 I now
enjoy helping the younger kids at school,
particularly those who are doing it tough.
2014-15: 230 volunteers donated their time to assist Mirabel
Mirabel welcomed 2 new members to our Board

Mirabel’s income comes from a diverse range of sources who,
through their generosity, contribute enormously in making a
difference to the lives of Mirabel children. Over the past year,
new relationships have been formed and existing relationships
strengthened through our commitment to a shared vision.
When Mirabel was established in 1998,
it grew at a rate that none of us expected
or anticipated. 17 years later, we have
supported over 5000 children and
kinship carers.
2014-15: Mirabel supported 1481 children & young people
up from 1289 children & young people in 2013-14

financial support
Mirabel’s ability to provide services to children relies on
generous funding provided by various donors, foundations,
corporations and governments.
In the financial year 2014-15,
Mirabel’s income was
derived from the
following sources:
incomeMirabel’s income for the financial year 2014-15 totalled $2,367,618.
expensesMirabel’s expenses for the financial year 2014-15 totalled $2,267,597.
resultMirabel’s operating surplus for the financial year 2014-15 was $100,021.
our financesAn amazing effort by all at Mirabel in the 2014-15 financial year saw our revenues increase by 12%, while our expenses only increased by 5.5%. It is quite clearly getting more difficult to raise funds in today’s economic climate, and as such the costs involved in raising these funds increase – however through the incredible efforts of the Mirabel team, they have been able to provide an operating surplus for Mirabel of just over $100,000 for the financial year. A truly commendable result.
A total of 354 new children were welcomed into the Mirabel family, an increase of 27% on the previous year. Again, this number will increase next year, so it remains central to the role of the Mirabel Foundation to raise as much money as possible to ensure these children are cared for to assist them in restoring their sense of self-worth, belonging and hope for the future.
As the only organisation in Australia addressing the needs of children who have been orphaned or abandoned due to parental drug use, every donation and funding avenue is crucial to the support services we provide.
As a result of the mid year budget review in December last year, the Federal Government cut Mirabel’s future Commonwealth funding. This decision was completely unacceptable for the Mirabel Foundation, and through the resilience and commitment of many of our supporters and the entire team at Mirabel, the government thankfully reversed this decision in June, with Commonwealth funding restored to Mirabel for the next two years.
With the continued generosity of all our wonderful supporters, the dedication of the Mirabel staff and the guidance of the Board of Management, we will continue to strive to ensure no child is turned away from Mirabel, enabling us to continue to support the lives of so many children today, and in the future.
