We have created a number of opportunities for you to support the Dylan Smith Foundation and help us achieve our objectives


  • Kid's Book Series

    Targeting affected siblings, extended family, friends and schools. Providing insight and comfort to children aged 3-7 years, 8-12 years and teens so that they are well prepared and know more or less what to expect as treatment progresses and how best to respond when a friend or family member has suddenly been taken ill and is likely to be hospitalised for a long period of time.

  • Educational Booklets

    Targeting extended family, employers and educators. Providing useful insight and tips to those who are close to the affected family. Educating the wider social network on what to expect and what not to expect from the family and how best to respond and support them.

  • Journey Web Services

    Providing a dedicated website for each family to share news with extended family and friends anywhere in the world who are all encouraged to refer to this resource for news and to contribute messages of encouragement and support, which helps the family avoid being overwhelmed with telephone calls.

  • Refuel Network

    We have created a social network for like-minded women of faith to connect, socialise, support and inspire one another. This is an ideal platform for us to not only organise initiatives that positively impact the lives of those caring for children with life-threatening illnesses, but which also holds the potential of becoming an important source of revenue to fund our various activities.
