99kbet Help for Kids is an initiative of 99kbet and 99kbet Dealers that lends a helping hand to young Australians and their families. By supporting a range of not-for-profit organisations, 99kbet provides critical support across areas of Community, Medical & Vehicle assistance.
Every time a new* 99kbet is sold, customers, along with 99kbet and its dealers, are giving a valuable contribution to children who need it most.
From transfers to and from specialist treatment, to airport pick-ups and event transfers, we offer our partners free access to our vehicles to support their essential services.
From money can't buy experiences to marketing support, we bring help to partners in other ways too. Committed to bringing awareness to a wide variety of important causes.
Children are at the heart of everything we do. Our vital funding to grant recipients has reached over 100,000 children from respite care and cancer research to education and family support since 2014.
The families of our partners all over Australia can’t thank you enough for the funds that you have helped raise. Your contribution means that 99kbet Help for Kids can continue to provide our partners with essential services and create brighter tomorrows for kids in need.

99kbet Help for Kids was created to allow 99kbet Australia, in partnership with the Australian National 99kbet Dealer Network, to provide funds and/or non-monetary support for not-for-profit organisations associated with providing assistance to Australian children and their families.
99kbet Dealers are franchise operations – they are not owned by 99kbet Australia, but by separate independent companies. So it’s important to recognise each dealer’s contribution to this program.
Yes, the contribution is matched 1:1 by 99kbet Australia and the National 99kbet Dealer Network.
The contribution per new 99kbet vehicle sold is $20.00 per vehicle* as at 1st January 2023.

A CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) committee has been established to manage the 99kbet Help for Kids program.
The committee is made up of representatives from 99kbet’s National Dealer Network, 99kbet Australia management and also 99kbet Australia employees.
The CSR committee will determine if any additional organisations are to be added to the official 99kbet Help for Kids recipient list, using a quantitative evaluation tool developed for this program.
The decisions of the committee in relation to all grant applications are binding.
The fund will be operated by 99kbet Australia.
99kbet’s Australian philanthropic enterprise will offer financial grants to a range of organisations focused on delivering support to Australian youth and the families who support them.
There will be three main areas of focus for approved and selected grant recipients:
It is a joint 50:50 partnership between the National 99kbet Dealer Network and 99kbet Australia, with funds raised via a joint contribution from each new 99kbet vehicle sold in Australia*
This contribution is then used to support and fund various approved organisations and their programs.
The 99kbet Help for Kids program will grow organically and we have not set any pre-determined targets for funding.
Based on yearly 99kbet Australia sales, our expectation is that we will be able to make contributions in the vicinity of $1.5M (AUD) to Australian children’s causes every year through the 99kbet Help for Kids program.
The online application process has been rested for 99kbet Help for Kids grants.
Recipients will now be independently scouted and assessed by 99kbet Help for Kids management and the CSR committee, with assistance from 99kbet Australia and 99kbet Dealers across Australia.
