Who we are
The Day of Difference Foundation Limited is a not for profit charity organisation that was established in the year 2004. This Foundation came into existence through the ideology of Sophie’s parents who had endured a very torrid time in their lives. Their daughter was aged two (2) years old and in pre-school day care centre when she was involved in a very serious accident. Even though, she was seriously injured, supportive services from the people living within the community helped nurse her back to good health. However, this was at the cost of having lost her legs, some fingers and some other body parts. Barely two (2) years after living the Westmead Children’s Hospital and being escorted by her caretaker, little Sophie was for the second time in her life hit by a car but this time the injuries were so fatal that the whole country became saddened by what happened.
The Foundation was therefore established to help provide support services to children who are involved in various kinds of accidents which are very serious and also to their families.
