Kelly, Roger & family
Sharing Family
Kelly, Roger & family started with Family by Family in June 2018 to meet new people as they generally stuck to themselves. They have found it very interesting and feel they have a lot to offer with 6 children ranging in ages from 17-4 with very different needs. Kelly and Roger feel that they can help support others due to their own experiences in life and how they have worked and pulled together for their family.
Their family values honesty, trust, family, their culture and giving their children the best opportunities in life. Teaching them to work hard, stay in school, achieve their goals and trust themselves. Playing sport is a passion for the whole family and something that brings them together. Kelly, Roger and the kids hope to be good role models for families they work with and show them that no family is ever perfect.
Josephine, Sim & family have experienced being both a sharing and a seeking family. They love being friendly, dependable and cooking great food.
Abagail, Gabriel & family came to Australia in 2004 from a refugee camp in Ghana. They became a sharing family approximately 3 years ago. Although they already enjoyed helping new arrivals in their own community they wanted to offer more help to more people.
May, Khalid and their family immigrated to Australia from Iraq. They first became a Seeking family as they wanted assistance to learn more about Australian Culture. They then wanted to give back to the community and became a Sharing family with Family by Family 3 years ago.
