Happy Holidays Support

Every year we work to ensure that families affected by poverty are able to enjoy the holiday season. Last year we raised $50,000 and helped over 200 families. And we can’t do it without your help! Our Happy Holiday program links families, businesses or groups with a family or families in need. 

​

Your donations are used to buy gift cards that are given out to families in need - all of whom are registered via our social worker to assess need. Households will receive gift cards valued between $100 and $250 depending on size. Top ups may be given in the new year if further funds are received after Christmas. Why gift cards? Last year we moved to this model because of COVID, but have found it so much more efficient to manage, and with gift cards parents are given the joy of shopping for their children - a gift so nice, it gives twice!
