Did You Know?

Homelessness, financial stress, drug and alcohol addiction, a plethora of mental health issues, domestic violence and sexual abuse, the lack of affordable medical and dental care and (in many cases) no clear understanding of positive parenting skills are just a few of the ills that plague our communities today.

These problems are compounded when they affect a child. We have seen and government data has shown, that any one of these issues can and does determine how our children will cope in the future.

Our community is at a crossroad. We, as a nation, as a community, have a civic duty and moral responsibility to ensure that the next generation is capable of becoming our leaders of tomorrow… our very survival will depend on it… and their survival depends on us.

Time honored charity institutions are being overwhelmed, not just by the very poor and destitute, but by the ever increasing need of a middle class that our current financial situation is in dire straits. This same middle class once supported the very charities that they now find themselves dependent upon.

It’s time we did something – because what we’ve been doing up until now…just is not working anymore.

And so the Utopia Research Institute Limited has been created to build a stable foundation that is dedicated to improving the physical, mental health and education of children and their families, carers, and the community at large.

As a non-denominational Charitable Institution, we believe our services and programs will reach a wider range of individuals that may not be utilising current services or programs that meet their needs.

We invite you to make a social contribution. You can volunteer time or services in kind; you can make a tax deductible donation or sponsor arrangement.

You can make a difference.
