Another $10,000 Matching Donation!!! Double your donation's impact, NOW! - Families Empowered and Supporting Treatment of Eating Disorders

I am pleased to announce a new, incredibly generous $10,000 anonymous matching pledge!

So, if you were considering donating to F.E.A.S.T. during this fund drive, now is a great opportunity to double the impact of your gift.

There are two kinds of donations that will trigger this match:

1. One-time donations of $100 and up (including $10/mo payment plan), and
2. Annual recurring pledges of $50 and up. These will trigger a double match!
(i.e. $50/yr =$100 match, $100/yr = $200 match)

Parents and Carers: Please consider participating in this survey by Sept 7th, 2015

By -
Parent/Carer insight sought to assist in developing early identification resources. The team at the Victorian Centre of Excellence in Eating Disorders are currently developing an early intervention resource package in direct response to feedback provided by parents and carers. The aim is to have the package available for families and carers at the first point where they seek help. This resource specifically aims to assist parents or carers to determine how concerned they should be about their young person; what eating disorders are and are not; when to escalate access to treatment; where to seek treatment and what to expect; and what parents can be doing at home in the meantime. A focus group was undertaken with 15 parents and they are now wanting to expand on the very valuable learnings gleaned from the group through wider survey. So, if you could please take the time to take the survey and to forward (via the link below) on to any families you think will be willing to assist...

"Wasting Away": A Channel 4 Documentary Mark and Maddy Austin. Photograph: David Hogan/Channel 4 To those who have watched, heard about, or who are discussing the Channel 4 Documentary “Wasting Away” , broadcast Thursday August 24, 10pm in the UK … … a blog post from F.E.A.S.T.'s Chair I watched the powerfully affecting documentary aired on Channel 4 last week, although I didn’t really want to; not because I don’t care about the story of Mark and his daughter Maddy and the effects of her illness on all of their family, and not because I don’t care about the others who were featured, many of whom have been failed or are failing within the scope of UK healthcare, but because I do care, very much.  And because I knew that I would be affected, my family having once been affected by an eating disorder too, and because of what I have seen of how eating disorders have affected many families over my many years of volunteering for F.E.A.S.T. Anyway, I watched, and a...
