Babies before Banks campaign

LHMU

Childcare crisis - tell the banks to do the right thing

The 2008 festive season isn’t looking very happy for ABC childcare workers waiting to see if they will be paid their hard-earned entitlements and if they’ll have jobs in the new year.

And tens of thousands of Australian families are facing worry and uncertainty while they wait for the ABC Learning Receivers to decide the fate of ABC Learning centres - especially the 386 childcare centres which the Receivers say are still under investigation.

You can help these workers and families by sending a strong message to the big banks: They helped to build ABC Learning. Now it’s time for them to do the right thing by ensuring that all ABC workers have a secure future and that all children have a guaranteed childcare place.

Sign the online petition and ask your friends, colleagues and family to do the same.

You can download the petition to distribute to people who don’t have access to the internet. Click here to download.

Make sure the big banks hear the message - BABIES BEFORE BANKS.
