The Terry Campese Foundation (TCF) is a not-for-profit on a mission to build brighter futures for young people. Everyone deserves the opportunity to become the best possible version of themselves, but sometimes mindset, circumstances or lifestyle can get in the way. We focus on equipping young people with confidence, self-worth and resilience by helping them to: reflect on how they respond in different scenarios. develop the right tools to deal with challenging situations. build their ability to communicate effectively. test their new skills in a safe setting and prove to themselves what they're capable of with a little effort and persistence. We help to give young people the space (away from social media and other life pressures) and guidance to build the life skills that will set them up for success. We have developed this app to provide a secure and safe place to connect and support our recruits, young people, volunteers and our community members. This app connects different groups through it’s chat function, TCF Youth Programs, Special Forces Challenge, mentors and volunteers- all in the one place. Check out all upcoming TCF events and receive up to date news and information right at your fingertips. This app will also support our Queanbeyan Night Podz. A bus with 7 sleep podz, providing a safe, warm place for people to rest overnight. The app will support our amazing volunteers to connect, chat and sign up to the nightly roster.
