Help WA Kids Breathe Easier — Give Before June 30

Meet Noah

“I can play footy, go to the pool, and I’m not held back by my asthma anymore. Thank you for helping me so much.” – Noah.

Since visiting the Children’s Respiratory Hub, Noah’s health and well-being have significantly improved. He has a clear treatment plan to manage his asthma both day-to-day and during flare-ups. These days Noah loves swimming and playing footy on the weekends with his friends—his asthma no longer holding him back.

Why accurate diagnosis matters

Every year in Australia, over 13,500 children under 15 are hospitalised due to asthma.

More than 26,500 kids end up in emergency departments with asthma-related issues — many of which could be prevented with early and accurate diagnosis.

Our goal this year? To provide free lung function testing and diagnosis to more West Aussie kids, but we can’t do it without your help.

Your donation is making a difference

This year alone, Respiratory Care WA have provided free Lung Function Testing for over 400 children across our respiratory hubs in Perth and our newly opened South West hub in Bunbury.

We need your help to meet growing demand and continue offering free, life-changing testing for kids who need it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the impact of my donation?

In Western Australia, over 60,000 children live with asthma — yet research shows that more than 60% are misdiagnosed or mismanaged.

By donating before June 30, you can help Respiratory Care WA provide a life-changing, personalised Lung Function Test to a child and their family who need it.

That one test could mean the difference between breathing freely and struggling for every breath.

Is my donation tax-deductible?

Donations over $2, made before June 30, are tax-deductible. All donations will receive a receipt from Respiratory Care WA.
