Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Mary of Denmark
'I am proud to be the International Patron of such a worthy children's charity. Keeping children safe from violence is one of the most important responsibilities that we as a society undertake. As children are the true essence of our future, the importance of providing them with the most basic human right of having a safe and happy childhood cannot be underestimated.'
The Hon Kevin Rudd MP, Prime Minister of Australia
'This Foundation exists because we share one important value across all civilised countries in the world: that is, our abhorrence of any form of violence towards children. There is no justification for violence against a child in any circumstances. I am pleased and proud to be National Patron of this organisation, a great Australian institution.'
The Hon John Brumby MP, Premier of Victoria
'I commend the Foundation on its continued good work. The Government of Victoria has been pleased to support the Cybersafety and Wellbeing pilot program in Victorian schools in 2009, in line with our policies and programs aimed at creating safe and caring environments for all Victorian children. I am proud to be the Victorian Patron of the Foundation.'
'I am so proud of The Alannah and Madeline Foundation. It would make my daughters smile to know they are being remembered in such a helpful and beautiful way.'
