TREVOR BARKER FOUNDATION SUPPORTING CHALLENGE

The Trevor Barker Foundation was established to continue the memory and inspirational work of a remarkable man.

Trevor Barker was an inspiring player for the St Kilda Football Club for over 14 seasons. He was St Kilda’s Best & Fairest player twice and represented his State seven times.

Trevor was always positive, with a great sense of humour and provided hope, gave strength and offered encouragement to so many people in need. Sadly, Trevor passed away from cancer in April 1996.

The Trevor Barker Foundation was established in 1997 for the purpose of supporting the work of the Challenge Foundation – supporting kids with cancer and has been supported by St Kilda Football Club ever since.

The Foundation runs annual sports camps, in various locations for children living with cancer and other life-threatening blood disorders and their siblings. A property was also purchased in Torquay, Trevor Barker House that provides free holiday accommodation for families all year round, offering some quality time out during treatment.
