      Tender success ensures ongoing support for families and children across Sydney

      Care Finder Program

      KLR Communications congratulates our client Weldon Children’s Services on a number of recent and well-deserved tender successes allowing this impressive organisation to continue supporting families and children across Sydney.

      Weldon is a not-for-profit community organisation catering for children from birth to 12 years of age providing early years education and care to families most in need. Services include:

      • before school care, after school care, care on
      • pupil free days during school term; and
      • vacation care during school holidays.

      The KLR team worked with Weldons late last year in a tender process to successfully secure their place as Outside Ordinary School Hours (OOSH) provider at 3 schools across Sydney, ensuring consistency in care for children who have developed strong bonds with their carers.

      “Recently the team successfully assisted Weldon in being re-appointed as OOSH providers in multiple locations by supporting us through an EOI process. They take the time to really understand what the desired outcomes are and what is needed to provide a winning submission,” Deborah Moran – CEO Weldon Children’s Services.

      In addition, KLR worked with Weldons to secure development grants for 5 of their OOSH programs. The Development Grant Program aims to encourage and support projects, initiatives and programs that are designed to increase the viability of an approved service. Through securing important funding, Weldons is now able to further develop their programs, develop the expertise of their educators and obtain exciting new equipment and supplies that promote physical activity and development for children.

      “KLR Communications supported Weldon through a successful grant application process that resulted in Weldon obtaining significant grants for 5 of our Out of School Hours programs. Kathryn and her team are highly professional. I highly recommend engaging [them] to support any organisation going through a tender or grant application process,” Deborah Moran – CEO Weldon Children’s Services.
