Give the gift of dignity and choice

Your donation is more than a gift – it’s a moment of dignity and joy for someone facing challenges this Christmas. With the freedom to choose how they use their gift card – whether it’s a meal, a present, or petrol to visit loved ones – your kindness brings comfort and connection to thousands in our community.

The Appeal offers a simple and powerful way for our community to come together – supporting families who live, work and grow alongside us.

How your donation makes an impact

“A mother I support was really dreading Christmas. She felt overwhelmed and worried that she had nothing to offer her children and that the holidays would only highlight the hardship they’d been through. When she received support through the Giving Tree Appeal, it completely shifted the mood in her home. Her children were excited, and she felt a sense of hope and connection. It reminded her that people care, and that she wasn’t alone.”

“One of the mums I work with, who has teenage children, shared how much it meant to receive gift cards through the Giving Tree appeal. She told me how difficult it can be to buy for teenagers, especially when money is tight. The gift cards gave her children the chance to choose something personal, something just for them. It gave them a sense of independence and joy, and for her, it was a huge relief to be able to offer that experience during a challenging time.”
