Parents Bruce and Denise Morcombe established The Daniel Morcombe Foundation in 2005. Their son Daniel was abducted and murdered in December 2003 while waiting to catch a bus on the Sunshine Coast. The Foundation was established as a lasting legacy to Daniel. It now has two main aims; to educate children on how to stay safe in a physical and online environment and to support young victims of crime.
The Foundation’s belief and vision is one that incorporates a future which provides all children with protection, education and support in their lives. The objectives of the Foundation include educating children regarding their personal safety (including abduction); assisting victims of crime, particularly where crime involves children; and honouring the memory of Daniel by appropriate public awareness.
I have long been in awe of the strength and courage of Denise and Bruce Morcombe and their family. I was filled with admiration and moved to tears by their book ‘Where is Daniel?’
I’m proud to say that this month, I am again donating 10% of The Silver Forge proceeds to the Daniel Morcombe Foundation to help with the marvellous work they do. Pop to The Silver Forge Shop and see if you can help!
