Run for the Kids
Benefiting the Royal Children's Hospital Good Friday Appeal
In April 2014, approximately 200 Forever New staff joined a record 35,166 runners on the course through Melbourne's iconic Botanical gardens
and city streets. Forever New raised and donated $24,000, contributing to the event total of $10,682,279.
We all had great fun on the day and look forward to increasing our support for this great cause in 2015 and beyond.

Each year we donate over 38,000 pieces of clothing and accessories to local charities. Forever New is committed to helping organisations that support young women and their families. Fashion can bring happiness and excitement to young women who wouldn’t ordinarily have the chance to shop at Forever New.
