Every year, we work hard to secure the equipment we need—whether through sponsorships or discounted purchases. However, despite our best efforts, it’s not always possible to acquire everything this way.
In many cases, we have no choice but to hire equipment, which can be costly. These ongoing hire fees reduce the funds we’re able to donate, and over time, they add up to more than the cost of purchasing the equipment outright.
In 2025, we’ve focused on applying for grants to help cover these expenses, though we haven’t had success yet.
We’ve received a number of enquiries from generous organisations and individuals asking how they can help. In response, we’ve put together a list of our current equipment needs. If you or your organisation are interested in assisting with any of the items below, we’d love to hear from you.
You can contact us at admin@bc4k.com.au for more details, including any discounted rates we’ve been able to secure.
